I received a survey questionnaire from the American Community Survey of the Census Bureau. On the envelope it was written in bold that my response was required by law. Has anyone else received such an envelope from the Census Bureau? Giving out personal information in these times of government snooping and people snooping into each others affairs etc. kind of makes me hesitant to fill out the questionnaire. What would you do?
I completed one of those forms a few years ago. It was no big deal.
[i just didn't tell them about the illegal aliens living in the house]

I'd send it back blank with a note saying the NSA has all your info and to check with them.
Oh, believe me, I know exactly how the government works. That's why they'll never get anything from me.
And you might as well stop arguing like a little child. My answer is final.
Ok. You believe what you want and we'll see you at the next meeting bitching about your new sewer bill because your welfare collecting ass was "afraid" to fill out a form.
