I worked for the census after I got out of high school. Worst-run organization that I’ve ever seen, bar none. They would hire anyone who could act vaguely human; I think they would have hired an orangutang if he had a clipboard. They hired people who thought five-digit zip codes were “too complicated.”
And they made it real, real, clear that (1) it didn’t matter how much money got spent. (2) it didn’t matter if the census was accurate, but (3) it was VERY important that all the stupid forms got filled out properly. I mean, this got drilled into everyone’s heads day in and day out.
Hard to believe ACORN could make it any worse.
Wanna make any bets they will just make it up and rarely actually talk to people?
