I have no doubt that corruption can come to play after the numbers are gathered. Or, in the preparation of the sample questionnaire, or in the processing. Still, I trust a larger number of census takers across the country than a smaller number of pollsters under some sort of central supervision. Statistical polls are much easier to manipulate, especially with subtile manipulation, than are census numbers, which will require gross intervention to distort.

I'm a USC grad. Even though you are a Berkley alum, you don't appear to be completely brain dead. My compliments on your survival.

I'm somewhat surprised that the Berkley whale lifestyle census takers had any problems -- people on drugs can usually communicate well even with inanimate objects.
