The race and ethnicity questions were vexing to me. How am I supposed to "categorize" my children who are Chino-Latino but not white ethnicity - white race? I would add an additional answer to the question about race: person of mixed-races origin.

As an atheist, I would love to see the response to the following question: 11.) What role does GOD play in my daily life? a) I identify as an atheist (including Buddhists and Jains) so GOD plays no role in my daily life other than as a "mind projection"; b) I identify as an agnostic, neither believe nor disbelieve in GOD and do not think about it much otherwise; c) I identify as a deist and so, though I believe in GOD, I do not believe in divine revelation through scripture or that GOD interferes in any way in the natural laws of the world and do not think of it most of the time; d) I identify as a theist and so believe in a GOD known to me by divine revelation but do not belong to any particular organized religion but do believe in a personal GOD to whom I sometimes pray, usually when upset, but not on a daily basis; e) I belong to and identify as part of an organized religion, mostly for social reasons, and do believe in a personal GOD but that belief is not central to my everyday life; f) I belong to an organized religion and both strongly believe in a personal GOD revealed by divine revelation and experience this belief as central to my daily life.

Why does the Census not ask one's occupation? It seems to me this devalues what we do for work. In my recollection, the census used to include the occupation of the various household members.

i completed the census and was surprised at the "adopted child" option - why does this matter? and if it matters so much, then why not specify international or local adoption? i have 4 biological children and see many international adoptive families really trying to embrace both cultures. my 11th question would be "what language is spoken in the household"
