The Census Bureau is full of iggynoraymusses

They sent me a letter to tell me they are going to send me a letter in 1 week.

How many freakin trees did they kill to do that???

1. I got the letter also. How many trees where killed to send a letter to every address?

[trumad]

2. I guess your one of those anti census people?

[SmileyRose]

7. Not at all.

I'm not against the Census, I'm against waste.

[Telly Savalas]

3. I almost didn't notice the letter saying I was going to get a letter in a week.

They should have sent me a letter a week ago to let me know that I should be looking out for it.

4. Should we all send them a letter letting them know whether and when we are going to

return our forms?

[icymist]

5. We got that too. What a waste of money sending letters out, to how many millions?

Just to tell them that another letter, the real one, is in the mail?

6. I think everyone got one. I did.

And as for the census killing too many trees...I know someone working for the census, and the amount of paperwork is insane. Putting everything online WITHOUT everything on paper, IN TRIPLICATE, would save a rainforest. :mad:

8. A - men !!!

9. If it comes back undeliverable it saves your taxpayer dollars

from having to send the more expensive form itself and send out personnel to follow up.
edit: i'm sure it's all recycled paper.

10. k...

11. The fact is, the only reason there is still a census is because it's in the Constitution.

Otherwise would have been scrapped a long time ago.

12. I got mine today. Maybe they think people are really stupid and need a letter

to remind them that the Census is coming?
:shrug:

[eleny]

13. Perhaps it was sent because of all the bogus mail that looks like the census

So they send a notice that the legit census form is coming soon.
