Government Intrusion
Anyone else here receive the American Community Survey from the US Census Bureau? They want to know how much my electricity bill for the month is, gas, etc... mortgage payment on my house.... how much in property taxes...If I am currently covered by health Insurance...If I drive any vehicle over 1 ton...? (Seriously?) I have refused to fill it out.. Now I am getting harassing phone calls from them every Saturday morning....
Naturally they say that I HAVE to fill this out and return or possibly be fined between $100.00 and $5K...
Anyone else here receive this?

I did and did not fill it out, they have not come after me but well see what happens at ta time.
In all honesty I dont have a problem with the questions, I have a problem with tying my name to them. If it was a truly anonymous survey that asked only your county or congressional district (and not your addy or name) I would have been happty to send it back in.
