    When people start looking up from the green grass they will notice the tags on their ears. If they look hard and far enough they will start to see the bars on their cages.

    Why is it ok for the Centralized government to break the law, yet it is not ok for us (the citizens) to break the law?

    Reflect about it.

  • dknob1:

    You talk like an ass. I have Census form right in front of me. It questions 7 questions. Nothing about money, autos or insurance. Just about how many people are living in a specific area. They use this information so the Gvt can distrubite the right amt of monies to the State, Counties & Cities. They also use the # to determine # of congressmen. I am not a Gvt Groupie & I reflect we have problems…but this is not the Wolf in sheeps clothing like this jerk says it is.!!!

  • dknob1:

    Not Right !!. Only 7 questions on Census Form. Nothing about maney, autos owned or homes owned. They use # of people to determine amt of money Gov gives to State,Cnty & City. Also the amt of Congressmen to represent U. He’s a jerk !

  • RBDRanch:

    Wake up – they are collecting this information in many ways, not just one form! A year ago they showed up on our doorstep to get our house GPS coordinates!

  • XxUrSoLoStxX:

    @dknob1….That’s 7 questions to many.

  • dknob1:

    Run ! Run ! The Sky is falling. Don’t look up or you might get a star in your eye. Also if you waer Red… Your a Commie. !! Give me a BREAK. If you don’t give the Census the info…We the People will be the one that endure !!.

    Is it right that for the last decade or so it never mattered who the American people voted for? And that all presidents follow the same agenda but carry them out in their own ways? Because one of the things Ive heard was that the war in Iraq was going to happen whether our country was “attacked” or not. That we were going to invade Iraq to get Saddam Hussien out of power by using his crimes against humanity as an defense. When all we really wanted to do was seize their oil.

    In all fairness to Jerry, the questions he is referring are part of the American Community Survey. It is the questionnaire that replaced the long form census. Instead of being sent out every 10 years, the ACS is being sent out each month to thousands of Americans by the US Census Bureau.

  • apvince:

    This jerk is lying through his teeth! They don’t question your income, housing cost, insurance you pay, if you’re on food stamps, or about your disability. They question 10 simple questions, then age, race etc. of anyone else living there at that address. And the census is done every TEN YEARS…. not every year like this clown is saying. Google “census questions” and gather the truth!

  • Natedawg422:

    Really, thankfulness to the Patriot Act, the Government is allowed to see any information about anyone that they deem is a “risk” to the country.

  • Tobytuber:

    @apvince
    He’s not lying. Try reading the “more info” column to the right where he provides MORE INFORMATION about his video including an description about the American Community Survey.

    Next time, open your eyes before you open your backtalk.

  • dknob1:

    You R Right..Nearly !! Not 10 Questions… Only 7. This guy wants his 3 minutes of fame. Only problem is that people R stupid & believe his bulllllll !!

  • Tobytuber:

    @dknob1
    You’re subdue incorrect. The ACS is about 28 pages long with about 30-40 questions. Please do some research, you’re making yourself look like a fool.

  • rider237:

    before you say he lies, you should listen. if you get the small form, you are only questioned a few questions. if you get the long form or “american community survey”, you will get pages of questions that are very personal and they say you are required to answer. this is done under the same census bureau. i have gotten the long form in the past. i will not answer those questions. they are not the business of the census bureau.
    is this a plotted attack by the posters?

  • Miata822:

    I’m gonna have to whip out the R-word on this guy. What a windbag.

    A thinking person would realize that it is useful for the government of 300 Million people to have excellent demographics on the population in order to govern well. Seeing a copy of the Constitution for the first time last year doesn’t abruptly make you an expert on law. The ten year requirement is clearly a Required Minimum effort.

    just another semi-literate paranoid shut-in with a backtalk larger than his wallet.

  • tophu1021:

    I’m sorry, I didn’t know you wanted a rebuttal. If you look at Republican policy in the 19th century, their policy was much the opposite of what it was today. Lincoln would undoubtedly be considered a Liberal today. Therefore, I stand by my aver. Look at Republican policy in the 1800s, they were LIBERALS by today’s standards.

  • rider237:

    you might be right. lincoln was the first to toss the constitution in the trash. on the other hand, it was, and has always been, the republicans that have stood up for ending slavery, ending discriminatory laws, and extending equal opportunity to all. the dems didn’t come to that until the 60’s when they found out that minorities were an vital voting block. their response was to extend welfare instead of opportunity. a dependant population is simpler to manipulate.

  • tubeyou2001:

    Again, this is not strictly two. I expected the long form which is, as I recall, 27 pages long. A census taker visited me and referred to the long form. He told me that I had to answer it and I questioned what the penalty was. He told me that it could included jail time and up to $5,000 fine. I questioned is that really going to happen and he said, probably not. He was incorrect, as I later learned, about the penalties. BTW, Census takers aren’t spies; they generally are not intelligent enough.

  • luvmydogs100:

    While the Census Bureau has only the authority to count us, our Congress has given them the responsibility to collect other information that is used by Congress and other legislative agencies for all kinds of purposes. Including where our tax dollars are most needed to be spent for the society as a total. I don’t really care what info you give them. Just don’t complain if another tax dollar is never spent on something you really want. You keep your privacy though.

  • Tobytuber:

    @luvmydogs100
    A lot of excellent they have done with our tax dollars up to this point huh? Get real.

  • rider237:

    how about if the feds stop taking so many taxes from me? if they wedged to the constitutionally mandated jobs, reflect of how much money we’d all have to spend in and on our own states on the things WE AGREE we want in our own states? trusting the feds for the our needs is kinda dumb. it appears it also gives the deal makers a lot of enticement money to work with. excellent use of my tax money? not!

  • smf4eva2008:

    GO JERRY, I VOTE HIM FOR OUR NEXT PRESIDENT! I’m with him!!! I have alot of questions for those frauds THE CENUS LOSERS!

  • cjjjr:

    Paranoid, conspiracy wing-nut. Don’t cooperate with the Census, but it’s OK to tap our phones. Why expect logic? Sounds like he got Tea-bagged once too often.

  • rider237:

    your line of reasoning might be valid if they were beating the phone lines of 300+ million people. instead, they are gathering personal info on 300+ million people. do you feel better now?
