Government needs to know how many people live in each area of the country, whether those people be legal or illegal. Not sure if the census even asks about birthplace, though that would be one way to assist in determining the legal status of everyone.

Since they don't really represent us, there's no reason to count us.

It is especially important for patriots to disobey the unconstitutional US code if the representatives are contracted out and not really gov't employees. This is especially true if even one ACORN volunteer (or their right wing counterpart) is hired to conduct it. You risk very little disobeying this "law".

An illegal alien is not considered a citizen. Maybe you should learn the definition of the word citizen?

Have never seen a census form addressed to "resident". And this will be the fifth in which I was involved.

Where does it say in the Constitution that the government is allowed to hire employees? It is a FACT that the ONLY CONSTITUTIONAL basis for the government to do the census is for the CONSTITUTIONAL members of the gov't--the POTUS, VPOTUS, or members of Congress--to go door to door to count the people lawfully living in this country.





Hey! Making arguments like this is actually kind of fun. Maybe I should follow the lead of the anti-census types and do this full time.

Again, unlike not paying your taxes, the fine associated with not "fully" responding to the census is minimal. Friends don't let friends fill out the full details of a census form.

Ah, using the GWB era inspired "what have you have to hide?" argument. Nice try Dubya.

No, really, what do you think they're going to do with your info that would lead you to not fill out the entire form?
