    I’d like to know which areas of the country had the highest response, because that’s where all the federal money, etc will be going. Yes, very disappointed, however not surprised, with by fellow Floridians. And on top of it all the president ordered the stopping of the count early. Just shot the foot of the very people that supported him.

    Some people do not trust the government and think “Uncle Sugar” is trying to steal their soul. They could not care less about the long range purpose of the program. but will willingly accept any benefits they might receive because of it. And the bottom line is many are just too lazy.

    Low return for the whole country. Took like 5 minutes to complete. Disappointing.

    the response rate in century is higher than i would have expected. you have to read and comprehend the questions. it was very simple and not intrusive. i don’t trust the feds but the more people you have and respond to these things you more tax money you get in return.
