Received the census and will not be filling it out as was only provided an ID code to complete online. This is NOT how we should be filling out such things by the Government in this day in age to protect our private info.
Claims asks NO personal info but ask for names, ages, and birth dates of people in the home as well as origin, and race of each person. These are in FACT are PERSONAL questions. These questions also have NO bearing on what the purpose of the census is for per the actual census:
Results from 2020 census will be used to
-
Direct BILLIONS of dollars in federal funds to local communities for schools, roads, and other public services
-
Help your community prepare to meet transportation and emergency needs
-
Determine the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and your political representation at all levels of Government
The ONLY question that should be asked and required by law is:
How many legal citizens reside in your home yet there is NO question regarding citizenship status.
I didn't fill mine out during Obama, because I was an insufferably suspicious bastard at that time. They came to my house repeatedly, and I told them no. They ended up asking one of my neighbors for info about me. The neighbor didn't rat me out, instead calling me to rat on the Feds.
Great neighbor!
