It's a relatively benign collection of data for statistical purposes. No one that I'm aware of is individually identified. The governments big brother features are far more overrated than fellow paranoid travelers would have us believe. As a many decade systems analyst, IT person, they are just not that competent. Whatever God you believe in help us if they ever do get that competent (we'll need all the help we can get).

I send in the farm census alright but they get NO info out of me. I take a marking pen and write in big letters across the page Private Information. The farm census idiots called me once and asked me how much my wheat income was and I told them to go to the IRS to find out.
