	CensusScope -- About the 2000 Census
		Census 2000 marks the 22nd census in the nation's history.

		Census Bureau Director Kenneth Prewitt —someone none of us voted for— is trying to sell us on the idea that it’s somehow our civic duty to complete the 2000 Census form, but it’s actually our patriotic duty to refuse to answer most of the government’s snooping questions.
		The Constitution states the purpose of the census is to accurately count Americans for the sole purpose of apportioning Congressional districts.
		The fact is, the information collected by the census is used to dole out an estimated $180 billion in taxpayers’ money, to justify expanding wasteful government programs, and to allow the government to continue to discriminate against Americans based on race or ethnicity.
