They don't need to know how many bathrooms in my house to tax for roads. They only need to count the cars sold and retired. The 2010 census is "Data Mining" pure and simple. "Enumerate" means count the people. It doesn't mean get their name, rank, and serial number....yet.

Do you, or do you not accept the validity of the US Constitution? Either you do, or you do not. You know that plain, simple English of which you're so fond?

Simple, plain question requires a simple, plain answer.

By all means sell of the government electricity providers and privatise the cops. Then people like you can stop complaining that I use services you forced me to pay for.

And the only reason the sell it to you is because they know that there's a government administered infrastructure that allows them to collect the money that you would owe them if you fail to live up to your agreement with them.

Yes, the government collects taxes when you buy gasoline, and then contracts to build roads.
