There was a mention in the envelope that filling out the Census was required by law. Something about that statement irked me. What does that mean? Give me more details. What will they do if I don't fill it out? What if I don't believe in the Census? (Not that there is anything to believe or not believe in...). So, I googled it like all good law students do.
Apparently, I can be subject to a penalty of $100 under 13 USC Sec. 221 for not answering the Census and up to $500 for giving false information. Okay. I guess if I don't fill it out and I'm subject to a fine...it means the government will get my information anyway for Census purposes. So either way, I will be counted. Okay then...count me (in).
Being prepared for class is a glorious thing. You understand what the Prof. is saying and can actually contribute during discussion. However, I forgot that I was only prepared for Corporate Tax and had failed (as always) to prepare for International Tax. Why why why did I forget that I did not read a single page in that book and proceed to participate (when I had no freaking idea what was going on)? Ugh, brain freeze? But the International Tax-God was amazing and did not mind that nobody read the case. Amazing man.




what a model citizen! i got the form in the mail but i have not filled it in. this census stuff is serious. two letters from the gov. one to just tell me im going to be expecting a letter! what a waste of tax dollars.
