Another Question for those who lie on the Census:

[Dis]

Then they don't need to ask for either, do they? So why waste the room on the paper?

Who cares?
I fill out paperwork all the time that asks for my address, and was also sent to my house. Get over it, there are more important things in life to worry about.

The complaints about this are obviously coming from the more hysterical extremists who wish to add one more layer of Obama-bashing--like it's something HE intends to "use" as part of his overall plan of taking over the entire US government and turning it into a Communist state.

Once again, you're completely full of shit. I don't waste my time bashing Obama; nor do I spend 24/7 sitting here complaining about the rights and wrongs of the left and right like some of you, MAGGIE.

Extremist? Not exactly something you can label me with, either... But DO keep trying, eh?

Is this Dis' or Pilgrm's footprint?

Speaking of carbon footprints........My carbon footprint is positively Brobdingnagian!!!! and only getting bigger, and BIGGER every day. Sometimes I forget and I leave the lights and air conditioning on all day - while I am out driving around and nobody is home. Silly me! I do like to be comfortable, so in the summer I keep the AC at around 68 and in the winter I heat the house to about 75-78. I also like to swim year round, so I heat my pool to 85-90 all year. It's a great pool! I dump the thousands of gallons of water down the drain at least once a year to keep it nice and fresh. Man I love that pool! I also like to fly for fun - that is why I got my Private Pilots license! DAH!!! When I fly my Cessna (around 100 hours per year on average) , I burn about 12- 15 gallons of fuel per hour. Since I have been successful at helping many other people accomplish their own goals, I have been rewarded financially, so I drive a new luxury SUV. One that safely ensconces me in comfort and style at around 18 MPG HWY and around 16 City. No need to thank me , I am just doing my part!!

You're the man, Zander!

Did you lie on it 10 years ago too, or is this just a "wild hair" that makes you want to lie on the census this time?

As soon as my Census form arrived, both my cats had to lie on it. When they receive it, they'll probably say, "what's with all this cat hair?"

BEST ANSWER YET!

I blew it off in '80, '90 and 2000 as well.

I did fill out the one in 90, most of the questions were invasive, those questions I marked N/A

That is the only census I have ever filled out. I really can't even tell you why I did it that year.

Go ahead - Blame it on the pussies...

 

[Ame®icano]

I just sealed my census form.

I replied to question 1 only. If they have problem with it, let them come to my door.

 

[Zander]

Mine was shredded along with the other junk mail I get. I am thinking about adding a SPAM mailbox to the front of my house- ya know, a second one for all the JUNK. Everything the Feds need to know, they already know.

I hope a census worker shows up at my door - he or she had better wear a raincoat and galoshes! I will soak them down from head to toe. I have set up a high velocity sprinkler head -it's the kind they use to wash the elephants at the zoo - It's a steady stream of freezing cold water under high pressure, that I can turn on from inside the house. I can hardly wait!! I am working on setting up a camera....

 

[random3434]

So am I the only one that filled out the census with all the questions? (except my phone #)

Just wondering. It sure seems that way!

No, I filled ours out completely too.

Just mailed ours in this morning, complete with names and phone number.

No BFD.

I filled out ours. It took 60 seconds. I can't remember if I included a phone number. I wasn't going to but I may have to show good faith.

Despite all the rightwing handwringing, this census is less intrusive than any census I have ever received.
It is much less intrusive than censuses that were taken a hundred years ago

 

[Soggy in NOLA]

Screw the Census. If, IF, I do reply... it will be so nonsensical it will be funny.

 

[Jarhead]

I do not understand the topic of this thread.
Why would anyone want to lie on the census? It asked for very little information other than who lives in the house.
I see it as nothing more than what the phone book used to offer.

 

[Soggy in NOLA]

Why do we need the Census? I hear that xx number of uninsured is a sure thing.

May he be counted there in 2020.

C'mon man you dont have to misrepresent things like that. Unless this was your first census, its the same as the last one.

 

[random3434]

Maybe by not answering, or lying on it, they are "Sticking it to da MAN!"

 

[Zoom-boing]

When the hell is that due, anyway? Cripes between taxes, census, student loan forms, housing forms, and other various and sundry forms that have to be filled out . . . blah, I hate forms.
