(CNN) – A majority of Americans think the federal government poses a threat to rights of Americans, according to a new national poll. 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. According to CNN poll numbers released Sunday, Americans overwhelmingly think that the U.S. government is broken - though the public overwhelmingly holds out hope that what's broken can be fixed.
And keep this in mind: 44% of respondents didn't see the federal government as a threat. 30% of our country works for the government, and even more receive an entitlement check from government. So basically, nearly everyone who does not depend government checks or handouts, understands the threat the Feds are to our individual rights.
