If youre poor, Washington provides food stamps, Aid to Families with Dependent Children payments, and subsidized housing. If youre rich, you can buy tax-free municipal bonds and thumb your nose at the IRS. But if youre a working stiff, you can expect only anxiety and the governments hand deep in your pocket.

Every ten years, the Census Bureau force a large number of Americans to complete an expensive 'long form,' which was never mentioned in the Constitution. Not only do the Census probers ask name and address, but sex, race, income, property, household furnishings, and dozens of other irrelevant and impertinent questions. For those who refuse to answer, the Census people unlike such pollsters as Roper or Gallup threaten federal prosecution. Head counting is part of the Constitution, but this invasion of privacy is not.
