interesting how the only question on the entire form which is highlighted in blue and surrounded by a border is "how many people live in this house?"
the rest is supplemental information
again... i dont honestly think a government raid is going to round up all the ________ people. (insert whatever race, religion, sexual preference, eye color, hair color, etc)
but the consititution is VERY clear on this issue... the census DOES not have the right to satisfy their curiosities by asking personal questions NO MATTER WHAT THE REASONING BEHIND IT MAY BE.
they only have authority to "enumerate persons".
@Tribesman...
to dole out cash for projects - that's ALL they need to know quite honestly.
the census was originally meant to enumerate the population to determine governmental representation.
NOT to determine how much government cheese to disperse.
please... feel free to answer every single question if thats what you wish. By all means.
I on the other hand will be adhering to the constitution... a document that i think our government has departed from by a WIDE margin over the past several decades.

Yes.
the 2010 census was heavily loaded with a hispanic slant.
ok fine.
but why?
perhaps Hillary, Pelosi and BO want to know exactly what it will cost and how many voters they will gain by granting them all citizenship?
who really knows.
but always remember this when dealing with your government
TRUTH, IS ALWAYS STRANGER THAN FICTION
