The Census - Dammit

So, a couple of weeks back we get a postcard from the census people telling us the census is coming.

Then we get a letter telling us the census is coming.

Then we get the census form.

I went through the census form and determined that you could not accurately fill out the form prior to April 1 because the question specifically asks how many people are living in the house on April 1. I am not precient or pschic or psycho for that matter so I cannot tell them how many people are living here on April 1 until April 1 at the earliest. Shit happens, people die, people move out. I have no way to accurately predict how many people will be living here on April 1.

So today I get a postcard reminding me that I have to return the census form and to please provide the information as soon as possible.

The earliest date that I can accurately fill out the form is April 1.

Dammit.

Didn't they even read the damn form they are sending out.
