3. Which questions are personal and private? For some crazy reason,
each census I get the long form, and there is nothing on there I wouldn't want anyone to know, or that can't be gathered from another data base. It's wrong to use the census as a political platform, it's the most apolitical federal dept. Yes, the data is used politically (gerrymandering), but the actual act is not. Jeez, is *everything* a faux outrage?

I think that not answering the census will eventually bite the Hispanic's in the future. It's self-perpetuating - justifiably complain about no money for schools, and there will be no money for schools.
