The Census form, with only the question answered of how many people reside at your location? If so, have you heard back from them, yet? What'd they tell ya?

Anyone had THE CAJONES to tighten the chin strap on your tin foil hat, crank up the gas powered generator on your shack that keeps you "off the grid," pull the blinds down on your double secret hidey hole and send inThe Census form, with only the question answered of how many people reside at your location so that the evil government cannot find you, track you down and plant a chip in your brain while you sleep that controls your thoughts? If so, have you heard back from them, yet? What'd they tell ya when they showed up at your doorstep in black suits, black sunglasses and held that shiny "wand thing" up?
Way to go, Tuba. You sure showed "them." :cool:

I only filled out what the government already knows through DMV records.

I refused to fill anything else out. At the bottom I stated that I had fulfilled my obligation as a citizen consistent with the terms of the US Constitution regarding census information. I sent it in.

We'll see what happens. I may get arrested. ;)

I've concluded that the census can safely update their stats with "middle aged white guy" without further inquiry if they get a form back with some kind of "protest" or frivolous answer written in on the form.

I noticed there was space for up to 12 people living at the address. For a moment, I thought about making up names and rolling with it.

I thought better of it as it would be too ACORN-y to make-up people for official gubmint records and such.

Reminds me when I received an application for a teacher job in the Plano school district after I graduated from OU (back in the 70s).

One question asked if I believed in the existence of a supreme being.

I checked "yes" and wrote "Barry Switzer" in the margin.




... I knew I'd be happier teaching in Norman anyway....

According the website they've been asking these same questions for at least 40 years.

So I guess their propaganda machine is working on you.

They used to have short forms and long forms. If you got the long form, they'd ask you stuff like how many toilets are in your house.

Yeah now they have the ACS, I guess 1 in 40 people get it or something.

I've heard it is very intrusive.

I'm not really a paranoid kind of guy, I more of a none of your ****ing business kind of guy.


Still don't know why the Census Bureau wants my entire families' birthdates. I understand why they want my age as of April 1st, I just don't understand the need for the exact date.

Under race I put "WASP"

1. If one were of Aztec descent, do you think he/she would check yes for "Hispanic, Latino, or Spanish" origin? I'm guessing the gubmint would say yes, but most people of Aztec descent want no claim to any of those terms. That's the case for many who are from south of the border or their ancestors are.

2. Ten years ago, for my kids, I checked yes for "Hispanic or Latino" and wrote
"50%" adjacent to it. This time I'm going "yes," unadulterated.

You know what I find more disturbing than anythimg they can ask me?

The fact that they have a help line: http://2010.census.gov/2010census/contact/index.php for people that can't figure out how to answer the questions. If you guys really want to **** with them, flood the call centers with all these questions and privacy concerns.

Not cooperating with the census takes hummingbird balls, more like a passive-aggressive hissy fit. Now if you refuse to pay your taxes, THAT would take some cajones. Ill-advised and stupid, yes, but ballsy nonetheless.

I guess I don't see it as a passive agressive hissy fit, at least for me. I'm not too wound up about them asking stuff that they don't have the right to ask. If I spent my days getting wound up about all the stuff the gubmint does that they shouldn't, I'd have a coronary inside of a week.

My personal take on it is that I'm a private guy and I wouldn't tell a stranger how many people live in my household, much less the other stuff. But my duty as an American citizen is to answer the question; the other stuff is nobody's beeswax.

And FWIW the writing of this post is more time than I've spent on the issue, honestly. I wouldn't know it were an issue if it weren't for this board and my ultra-right-wing Fox News believing family.

OK, V, that's a well-reasoned explanation, so you clearly do not fall in the passive aggressive hissy fit category. I was picking up on those posters who see the census as an opportunity to show the Man how they feel about the government. What next, flipping off the tv screen showing the President, rubbing snot on your completed 1040 tax form, and other courageous, cajones grande actions?

Not that I care either, really, but there should be one question followed by an explanation and a thank you for your time.

How many people reside at this address?

This is important so we can know the population of our country in order to interpret healthcare needs, unemployment rates, where we need to send military recruiters, and other things like that.

Thank you for your time.
