The thing is, if we all don’t answer the basic questions, we won’t have proper representation in Congress.
I will answer the questions as long as they don’t get too personal. There’s no reason not to.
Q: How many people live in this dwelling? Answer: X. That covers the head count for representation.
Everything else falls in two categories:
a. It's already public information that the Gov could access. Race, Housing, vehicles, Utilities, phones, internet, income, births, divorce, public assistance and so on.
b. It's private info they are trying to source and using limp excuses to justify the invasion of you privacy that protected by the 4th Ammendment.
No grounds for a Subpoena or Warrant, they just want you to surrender your privacy at their asking.
What happens if/when the Census snoops into other private property issues like number and type of firearms? Do you own a Safe? How much personal wealth is kept in the dwelling? How much ammunition is stored in the dwelling? Absurd? Yeah, thats what iI would have said If somebody thought that future Census questions would ask about same sex couples not too long ago.
Do what is right for you.
