Rasmussen: Majority of Americans think government is a threat to individual rights

Based on the extent of restrictions on the federal government in our Constitution, I can't help believing our founding fathers would have agreed.

Via Rasmussen:

Just over half (51%) of Americans continue to believe that the government is more of a threat to individual rights than a protector of them.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that only 34% of Adults in this country regard the federal government more as a protector of individual rights. Fifteen percent (15%) are undecided.
