You can always be dishonest or just quit being weird and say you want the job because you could use the income right now

Yes, though as you can tell it makes things more difficult.
I mean...what is your actual degree in? You said you qualify for this job, so if it is Statistics....what were you expecting? If it's something else...you could always take this job then springboard from it in about a year to some other government job. Maybe you'll like it, who knows? I used to think I wanted to work on stuff that was interesting, but now I find that what matters more is quality of life w/ my job (short/easy commute; nice boss and co-workers; having my own office; flexibility in when I can take my lunch break, vacations, telework from home occasionally, etc...) ...

I mean you have a reason, even if it's just money, and if it's just money, answer it honestly but in a way that makes them laugh etc.....like, well, I need a job and this is one I won't hate that pays the bills etc.

You know, I am starting to see that this question is slightly pointless. It's not like it would be very courteous to cancel, seeing as the date's been made already.

Take some time to research the company/position to figure out an answer to the question. If you really can't come up with a reason that you want to work there, then you probably shouldn't be applying anyway regardless of what that does to your chances of getting the job. Apply for jobs that are in line with your skill set and/or interests, not ones that you have no reason to apply for.

Answering this question would prove you're interested in working for the company. If you don't answer it then I don't see the point in applying. Someone who is actually interested in the company would get the job over you.

I personally wouldn't. It gives the impression that you haven't thought about what the job required or how you would be right for it. Your interviewer and potential employer may not want to hire you if he or she thinks you're that indecisive.

Just tell them you struggle with basic formatting and paragraphs, should get you out of the job pretty easily.
