Why would it be a ‘concern’ to ask someone if he’s a citizen?
As usual, they’ll be told to lie about citizenship.
I did not know the question had been removed. When? and why??
Good. Wanna bet the leftist America-haters sue?
And don’t ask if m*slim! (They planned to disguise it by asking about “Middle Eastern.”)
How does the US Constitution word the requirement for census?
Perfectly valid question that hasn’t been asked for 67 years.
One concern is what use is it?
Does anyone believe that illegals or legal aliens are all going to give an honest answer?
If it is in their interest (voting, staying here) they will say “YES I AM AN AMERICAN CITIZEN”.
The conerns no doubt being illegal aliens will be scared off from participating in the census, thus causing liberal states to lose population needed for maximizing their aportionment of the loot collected by the feds.
I guess it would concern blue states with heavy illegal alien populations who could stand to lose federal funding for all those illegal aliens who supposedly don’t cost any federal money.
But I was told illegal aliens don’t cost any federal money?
The 2010 long form census asks about citizenship in question 13.
https://www.census.gov/dmd/www/pdf/d-61b.pdf
It also asks many other questions which are far more trivial but personal.
It is illegal to knowingly and willfully make any false statement to the US government agency/officer. 18 U.S.C. § 1001, is very broad and can apply to any form you sign and submit to the US government.
Some of these liberal idiots will reply they are citizens of the world. What dos the enumerator do with that?
Is there a legal standard for truthfulness when a person responds to the census questionnaire?
Match the response, site address, voting records, USDA Snap, and outstanding warrants....Bingo! A short list for ICE.
Long form Question 17 asks if the person can dress or bathe themselves. - won’t that cause an undercount?
To all of us Americans who care, yes it seems like a normal question. To those Americans who want to be feudal lords over vast peasantry.. How dare you ask that?
The Census 2010 Didnt Use a Long Form
Fastforward to the Census 2010. The decennial Census 2010 only collected basic demographic information (just like the Census 2000 Short Form). The Census Bureau did not include a Long Form Questionnaire in the 2010 Census. Heres a copy of the 2010 Census Form. You can see that the Census 2010 Form is much more like the Census 2000 Short Form than like the Census 2000 Long Form. In fact, the Census 2010 Form is one of the shortest Census forms in history.
The long form was never used in 2010.
Anyone from the east of the Sirkeci railway station in Istanbul is simply labeled "Asian". That covers everyone from the Golden Horn to Hong Kong, and East of Suez...
