To Hell With The Census
Well I hope you drones have filled out and sent in your census forms I know I haven’t. I mean why do I need to? All this does is to take me away from most loved game, solitaire.
The census has been going on now for over two hundred years and this is the twenty-first national census in Britain. Now here’s the kicker, this census will cost us, yes us, close to £500 million. In today’s world is it worth it at that price. Many people can barely feed their families these days much less have the government spend that kind of money on the census. I know the general line of the government and other civil service authorities is that the census aids greatly in the whole decision making process regarding how services and resources are distributed. So things such as schools and hospitals are greatly affected by what is seen on the census forms. But do we really benefit?
Now my beef with the census is that it if, I believe, grossly inefficient and inaccurate. Serious how many people in the whole of Britain really answer most of the questions on the census forms truthfully and accurately?
Take for instance the question “what is your religion”, most people don’t even know how to answer this question because they do not identify with a religion. There are reports that some people have written down Jedi master as their religion.
Also it is expected that most of households in Britain will actually fill in and send the forms. Well people if you don’t you will be fined £1000, can you believe that.
