but finish, I will.
True.
But you have the options, "unknown/declined" or "other".
And then there's the obvious option of "black or African American," based on the racist (but official) one-drop rule.
If the racist bureaucrats want to challenge my response, they must prove I'm not.
I have enjoyed many minutes of chuckles receiving much junk mail addressed to the "black" me as the result of my decision to answer all government-required questionnaires related to race and/or ethnicity, as "black." No problem.
The information on that form is very rarely useful for patient care, and it is not needed to verify insurance coverage or to determine physician compensation. What is the government’s justification for forcing patients to spend the time and effort required to complete the form?
Other, they forgot to list homosapian!
They’ve even got “Canal Zone” and “Panamanian” as separate “ethnicities”.
Who knew there were so many “races”? Silly me, I thought there were only four with many ethnic derivatives.
Just answer ‘Other’, then, if you were actually born here’ ‘Native American’.
