Based on fairness and law, I really do hope everyone who believes that he or she has a stake in the future of his or her country and community will fill out the form in its entirety, save the government some money it might otherwise spend in pursuit of your answers. As to your objection regarding the home ownership question, this or some variant thereof has been asked since 1890*, and the responses have been used to advise decisions about housing & planning programs. Moreover, home ownership--as we've been reminded over the last two years--serves as an indicator of the health of our economy, and, in order for the federal government to be able to get a handle on macroeconomic matters, it has to be able to get the data on all the component parts. Politically and parochially, though, I really do so hope that ultraconservative census boycotting is widespread. This would lead to an undercount in those states and districts dominated by Republicans, and thereby, a reapportionment of seats in the federal government toward those districts where people think that the federal government can be a force for good! *here's a link: http://www.census.gov/history/pdf/1890_questionnaire.pdf . . . the relevant questions are #26-30. Interesting how long and detailed this form is compared to today's, though, isn't it? Article I, Section 2: “In such manner as they shall by law direct.”

So the 35% to 40% of the voters who actually vote must be protected via paper ballot (about 120 million +/-). But now they are saying all our private information will be absolutely secure?!?!? Let me get this straight. The government can't secure ONE vote of ONE person in 120 million, but it CAN secure tons of private information for over 300 million people? HUH??????
