37. If everyone gives up, everyone loses
Edited on Wed Jan-05-11 09:16 PM by NYC Liberal
I hear what you're saying though. Someone I know went to work for the census and left totally disillusioned. The amount of corruption, blatant lawbreaking, and manipulation was unbelievable. Was basically the only one there who refused to commit crimes and everyone was either in on it or didn't care, no matter how high up they went pursuing it. And the census determines everything - which districts the money goes to, Congressional representation, you name it.

But what I would say is that even if you don't think it's possible to win, at least make things as hard as you can. Death by a thousand paper cuts, if you will.
