[laughter] jeff duncan knows this is really a private privacy issue, explaining right now the census bureau can ask citizens very invasive questions. if they don't respond, the government shows up at their door and threatens them with a fine. americans are fed up with these mandatory census bureaus and they're asking us to stop the harassment. yes! stop the census bureau harassment. every few years they show up on our front porch asking for personal information. it's like a drunk ex-boyfriend. suzanne, who's the new guy you're dating? what's the highest level of education he's completed or is he pacific islander or other? folks, the government, the government, listen to this, the government says census information is necessary for distributing government services, but the real plans for this
