I am an avid family genealogist. I've spent years pouring over one Federal and State Census after another, tracing my treasured ancestors through all their travels. Without the tireless work of past Census Takers, this task would have been darn near impossible on such a large scale. Now, the Fed's have gone and screwed up my beloved census! I'm so mad I'm spittin' nails!
Check out this post by Legal Insurrection:"Yes, the Census questions are highly intrusive, asking about household plumbing, how many people live in the house, etcetera. On a personal level, my natural inclination would be to say "none of your damn business" as to many of the questions.
But most of these intrusive questions have been asked for decades, and in some cases, for centuries. This doesn't make the questions any less intrusive, but it is hard to claim the 2010 Census is out of the ordinary as to most of the questions.
With one exception. The Census document listing the questions which will be asked reflects a new multi-part question (beginning at page 68), which collects information regarding health care insurance coverage. Question 15 on the new Census asks whether each of the following forms of insurance apply to each person in the household:
a. Insurance through a current or former employer or union (of this person or another family member)
b. Insurance purchased directly from an insurance company (by this person or another family member)
c. Medicare, for people 65 and older, or people with certain disabilities
d. Medicaid, Medical Assistance, or any kind of government-assistance
plan for those with low incomes or a disability
f. VA (including those who have ever used or enrolled for VA health care)
e. TRICARE or other military health care
g. Indian Health Service
h. Any other type of health insurance or health coverage plan – Specify"
(There's more legalize at the website, which is quite good and easy to understand)
Can you see where this is heading folks? Yep, jail time for anyone who doesn't comply with what the gangster government DEMANDS that you do! I'm still going to put THIS IS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS and stapling the questions Glenn Beck said we should ask of Obama on the Census!
Gosh, I hope everyone is ready for this next War 'cause, if something doesn't change (i.e. vote out Demoncrats and many Republicans), it's coming.
When's the next Tea Party? I am so there.
Pear trees for the deers? It sounds like you live in such an enchanting place:)
ReplyDeleteAn obvious illegitimate use of a legitimate instrument. Any device in the hands of deceitful and devious charlatans can and will be used against the people. As Barney Fife would say, "Nip it in the bud."
ReplyDeleteThank you for more info!
ReplyDeleteDoes 'Another Black Conservative' know about this?
Simply giving links to great Conservative information I come across... A thought. Maybe something I could do. With a new blog. But still from the same place as I do 'Aunt Amelia's Attic' and 'Pix Muse.' When I did a "give 'em hell' blog before, I had it separate from my then every-day-blog. 'Twas *a pain* to keep switching back and forth.
And from my Burn Out which I developed, from that Conservative blog, I'm spooked to begin again.
But....... If I simply made a blog, to give links to great info I came across...... Just in case some of the gals who do read my "soft, sweet, pretty" Attic stuff... Just in case they were *Secret* Tea Party types... They could click on this new blog and... get info. links.
I even have had a name for such a blog. >,-)))))))))))))))) Maybe... Maybe... Maybe....
Hugs Hon!
