Census is compulsory

My wife has seen some of the census workers next to road erasing stuff on forms and filling in new stuff

Is she sure thats what she saw? :erm:

what would be the point of this exactly?

TOTAL CRAP.

The only way she could've seen that was if she were right next to him/her with a clear view on the "form" he was busy with.
 
Seriously, I bet the people who are against the census would be the first to complain if government takes a decision that is not based on statistical evidence. South Africa is currently data empty, we need to plan our infrastructure, why are people so paranoid. Our census worker didn't even bother to go into the house, the dogs was outside and we sat on the grass in front of the yard. It took like 10min to fill everything in.
 
you know what?

I don't care if people participate or not. No it is not a conspiracy like some would believe. But do what you want, I don't care. Answer or don't. I am still waiting.
 
Fantastic, they want me to fill in a census? Let me do it online anonymously.
Wonder how many crimes are being committed after SOME of these guys come to do their Census taking?

Seems a healthy attitude. The ANC scumbags are sure to have another agenda with the census data. Even if you don’t know what it is, a spoke in their wheel is a good general principle. They have delivered nothing so far, so I don’t think the ‘census’ that you are being nagged to participate in, will change things.
 
I don't see why people are so anti this? It's just a census for Pete's Sake. It's not like there is any info on there that the government doesn't already have if you are a taxpayer, cellphone user or home owner.

Yeah agreed with this, people make a big issue out of nothing these days.
 
The only power any government has is the power to crack down on criminals. Well, when there aren't enough criminals, one makes them. One declares so many things to be a crime that it becomes impossible for men to live without breaking laws. - Ayn Rand
 
i can tell you the results already...ahem " we have 5 million whites, taking 80% of our nations wealth, its time we nationalise and take back what is truly ours... "

Can't wait till some of these moaners have to have a manual prostate check! Now THERE is an invasion of your privacy. ;)
 
Please people, you won't lost anything by filling in a census. It's there for statistical purposes to help run the country better.

Don't say the government won't put it to good use. At least if they have accurate data, there is more of a chance. If you refuse to cooperate then you're being the spanner in the works, not the government. Also, the data could be useful for future governments as well.

If you're saying they're going to just fake the data, they can fake the data without bugging you.

There is only one way the gvt will run this country better.....get rid of ANC rule.
 
So you better stay home 24/7 until the 31st of October...

:p

I've been away for a week and found a note in my postbox that the oke had been to my house five times and would be there at 1300 today.
1300??? On a workday?

The only compulsory field is the amount of people in the household, not the other 74 questions asking random crap. rofl @ 10k fine, but murders/rapists get off on R500 bail? Only in SA.
