Judy,

A lot of the questions they do ask on that form are purely invasions of our
privacy. The Pirates of the Potomac have turned the Constitutional method of
apportioning seats in Congress into another political tool to keep them in
power.

Everyone interested in genealogy should be writing senators and congressmen
and demanding that the census be restored to its Constitutional purpose.
They are entitled to know only the age and legal status of each person in
the household. It is none of their business who owns the house or how you
got to work last week!

If they dropped all the garbage they would have room for place of birth and
maybe information about the parents' birthplaces to show migration patterns.
