    This is one of the most cost-effective methods to determine where resources are needed & how monies should be allocated.

    End this wasteful spending and invasion of privacy! END the ACS NOW!!!! We are AMERICAN citizens and have a right to free speech and a right to remain silent. The LIE that we have to take part in this survey is just that, a lie!! Just like mandatory evacuations, they can call them anything they want, but they can't make you do anything! They came by my house today and I told them to get lost, we don't deal with useless government hacks.

    We could always go back to the long form on the decennial census, but it would be expensive and dated within a couple of years. We need the information, and there is no more cost effective way to get it.
