WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO TELL THE CENSUS TAKER
http://www.dailypaul.com/50362/are-you-required-by-law-to-fill-out-the-census-survey
You are required, according to the Constitution, to enumerate the persons living at an address (read your Constitution).
Today a census taker came to the door of a friend who lives in public housing. When the tenant said "one" (and you know who I am already, and this is the fifth time you've been told), the census taker threw the copy of the Constitution on the ground and told the tenant that he would report this incident and to expect a letter from the Federal government. There was a witness on or near the premises and also one on the telephone.

HEY, DID YOU GET TWO CENSUS FORMS?
I Got Two, Too
http://atlasshrugs2000.typepad.com/atlas_shrugs/2010/04/i-got-two-too.html(You should read Atlas today)
Silly me, I thought it was an .........accident. I received two forms, one right after the other, not one or two days apart. This was weeks back. And mind you, this is on top of the Census stalking ......
Counting Once, Counting Twice: U.S. Census Sending Millions of Americans A Second Form
(CNSNews.com) – About 40 million “replacement” Census questionnaires are being sent nationwide to households in areas with low mail return rates, even if those households already have returned the first form they received, Census officials announced on Thursday.
And just days after completing their paid training, hundreds of Census enumerators in Northern Virginia were abruptly laid off without explanation on Thursday.
Census officials said mailing out a second form is designed to increase census mail participation, get a better headcount for the states, and save taxpayers the cost of sending out census takers to collect information.
The Census Bureau estimates that mailing a second questionnaire “in targeted areas” could save more than $500 million and raise the participation rate by 7 to 10 percentage points.
But what about double counting?
“[P]eople who have completed and returned their questionnaires need not fill out the replacement Census form,” said a news release issued Thursday by the U.S. Census Bureau's Charlotte region. "You should only complete and return one census form," the release said. “Extra census forms should be discarded.”
I got the long form, twice. But apparently, I'm not alone, so says Pam Geller at Atlas Shrugs today.
In a call to Congressman Allen Boyd's office, the staffer said SERIOUSLY, THAT THE SECOND FORM SHOULD BE SENT IN.
YEAH, RIGHT, BUDDY.
You got one. The allotment. That's all you get, with the Constitutionally necessary information.
What is this? ACORN AT WORK? VOTE EARLY AND OFTEN?
Maybe I'll put up a poll today for how many readers got duplicates. I'm interested. Let me hear from you.

Confirmed (by me) that Census will count illegals
I have a friend who is employed as a census taker in a southwestern state. Her instructions:
COUNT EVERYONE WHO BREATHES, INCLUDING ILLEGAL ALIENS.
