A majority of Americans think the federal government poses a threat to rights of Americans, according to a new national poll.That's staggering. 56% of America believes the size of government itself is an immediate threat to Americans. An immediate threat. If that is true, if the majority of the American people honestly believe this is the case, then don't we have to rise up against the government itself? Is that not the next step?
Fifty-six percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Friday say they think the federal government's become so large and powerful that it poses an immediate threat to the rights and freedoms of ordinary citizens. Forty-four percent of those polled disagree.
The survey indicates a partisan divide on the question: only 37 percent of Democrats, 63 percent of Independents and nearly 7 in 10 Republicans say the federal government poses a threat to the rights of Americans.
If you were looking for justification to do that, would this poll not validate that belief? If you were looking to press violence against the government, would this not be the catalyst you would require in order to take action?
So why is CNN asking this particular question, equating the size of government itself with being an immediate threat to the "rights and freedoms of ordinary citizens?" Is it not how a government is run, and not the size, that is the threat?
Not to socially responsible, "liberal" CNN. Why not ask "Do you believe we should rebel against the notion of government itself?" Yeah, anarchy!
Take power away from the government (who is accountable through elections) and give it to the corporations (who are not accountable through elections) because government is a threat to freedoms!
Gotta love corporate nihilism.
