Watched Fox News last night and they reported a Gallop poll showed 72% of the people in this country fear Big Government over Big Business, and Big Labor as being the greatest threat to this nation. With Big Business as 21% and Big Labor that once was the highest at 11%
They said Big Government is up from 55% a few years ago.(2009 I think)
I think they broke out like this
92% Republicans
71% Independents
56% Democrats.
Said they fear big government

Ya know how some people fear clowns?
That's kinda how I feel about the gummit.
Mostly laugh at their antics but but there's always that niggling fear (justified or not) of an underlying evil masked by the grease paint.

And naive children think they are the berries.
I will leave the logical and redirective extrapolation to the more worldly folks here.

Sorry, I had to go there.
Was a song from my distant past.
Funny how we've merged from cattle guards to
this stuff.
