We sent our Census form back 3 weeks ago now we get another in the mail yesterday. Anyone else get more than one to fill out. Who said the Gov cant handle taking over programs? Wait till obamacare kicks in. Rolling Eyes I wonder if we send the second one back will that count towards more representation. Sounds to me like Acorn is involved in this fiasco. Laughing

The census doesn't necessarily lend itself to productivity. But it's important, fill out your form, etc., etc. If you don't, consider this:

According to a Census Bureau press release, mailing back the form costs the government only 42 cents, while visiting a house costs 56 dollars. Shocked

Why does it cost 56 dollars to visit just one house! Even with repeat visits, this seems a lot. Imagine that pizza delivery were this expensive.

Mine was easy. I filled in the number of people living here, left the rest blank & mailed it.

They wasted money with all of the mailings telling us the census was coming.

Doesn't anyone have fiscal responsibility?

It's only taxpayers money, it's not like it's real money.

My wife just called the morons they said go ahead and fill out the second one it wont count as two. Excuse us why the f--- would we waste our time with a duplicate?? Man I cant wait till this bunch takes over healthcare and the student loans. Rolling Eyes Maybe we will get a $56 visit by some field worker asking why we didnt do no.2?

I too sent my census form back in . Yesterday, got another form in the mail. I am thinkining of sending it in with my dog's information , I just got to find a ink pad so she can send her paw print in lieu of the signature ( she never mastered writing ) . Wonder if that will warrant a visit from a field worker?

Your dog is probably smarter than the bunch running this census.
