The federal government knocked on Andrea Parrott's front door in Flower Mound a few weeks ago, and she didn't like it.
A representative of the U.S. Census Bureau stood there demanding to know why Parrott hadn't answered a questionnaire called the American Community Survey.

I understand the need for the census but this survey seems to go way too far prying into your personal life. I would feel real uncomfortable answering some of the questions. IMO, this goes beyond the founders mandate to count the population.
