I haven't gotten my census packet yet, but I've gotten two mailings for my deceased sister (who happened to have married a dude, also deceased, who happened to have a "latin" last name.)) and had a door knocker who asked about her and wanted to make sure she pledged to fill out her census form, and, had a mailing from our local "representative" that stressed how important it is that "everyone be counted" so as to ensure maximum federal funds to our district. Sorry folks, there are only two people living in this house that could potentially house a couple of dozen illegals, and none of us are Communists. Hope this didn't burst your self-delusional bubble. | |||

No mail in option in the letter I received, online only and you cannot leave a question blank. For race you have to enter an origin. White (example German, Irish, English, polish) I selected White and typed in mutt for me and Faux Dutch for my wife. | |||

I was able to leave that blank, then it came back as red and I left it blank again and the thing went to the next question "Violence, naked force, has settled more issues in history than has any other factor.” Robert A.

If nearly every Republican in California were to claim only one person per household, how might that effect the number of representatives in the house?  Life moves pretty fast.

I ate his liver, but skipped the fava beans. I've never liked fava beans. Yech. Chianti is nice. The budget should be balanced, the Treasury should be refilled, public debt should be reduced, the arrogance of officialdom should be tempered and controlled, and the assistance to foreign lands should be curtailed lest Rome become bankrupt. People again must learn to work, instead of living on public assistance. ~ Cicero 55 BC The Dhimocrats love America like ticks love a hound. | |||

I received a census survey mailing that stated more than once it is a "violation of law not to respond" or some such threats. Since I changed my elderly mothers mailing address to mine, I get TONS of "official, registered to the addressee, under penalty of federal law for anyone to open but the addressee" etc. mail that is all crap. I checked, and the census survey thing seems legit, but everything about the actual mailing screams "phishing scheme" and thus should be ignored. | |||

Haven't receive it yet. Will answer to the best of my ability. I believe accurate Census data is important to the functioning of the government, and is useful to later generations for genealogy. flashguy Texan by choice, not accident of birth | |||

I tried leaving it blank, but it didn't like that, so I put in "unknown" and it was happy. When in doubt, mumble | |||

Para, you’ve sparked my curiosity. Why would you throw it out? What difference does it make if the government knows how many people are in my home? The “lol” thread | |||

I'm always tempted to answer "African-American". Technically accurate according to current thinking of where our species started out right? | |||

Since "None of your Goddamn Business" was not an option.... I dropped down to "other" and typed in Native American As long as White people (example German, Irish, English, polish) are openly under attack and discriminated against in this country, why would I self-select "White"? "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown "The United States government is the largest criminal enterprise on earth." -rduckwor | |||

You are correct, sir. "Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies.
