Hey, US Government?

[agilebrit]

I get that it's Very Very Important that I fill the census thing out and send it back to you.

In fact, I did it the day the thing arrived in the mail.

However, I'm quite miffed that you're spending my hard-earned tax dollars that could be better spent elsewhere to send me not ONE, but TWO letters letting me know, first of all, that the cursed thing was coming, and then an ADDITIONAL postcard telling me How Very Important it is that I fill it out and send it back. When I've already done so.

Also, I don't like your incessant TV ads. How many of my tax dollars were spent on those?

And you're the people we're supposed to trust with our health care?

Yeah, RIGHT.

Sincerely,

agilebrit, who is skeptical that you will ever do anything right ever again

MY THOUGHT EXACTLY! They even had a freakin' DORA THE EXPLORER ONE FOR THE KIDS! Starting the Propaganda early are we?

I'm ready to drive to Washington and smack a bitch, seriously. Because not only are they filling my mailbox with this crap, they're paying someone to do it AND come up with the ideas for their idiotic ads too.

I'm just glad I got the basic one this time, because if we'd gotten the really intrusive one, I'm not sure what we would have done, it being a crime to not fill it out and all...
