Rasmussen poll: 92% Favor Strict Limits on Government To Protect the Individual

These kinds of polls never make it on the nightly news or the NYT and their ilk.

I did a search before I posted this and not one TV news outlet, including cable,  nor one high profile newspaper article ran it.

92% Favor Strict Limits on Government To Protect the Individual

Wednesday, April 18, 2012

Voters believe too much government power is a dangerous thing and put a very high value on protecting the rights of the individual.

Sixty-five percent (65%) of Likely U.S. Voters agree with the statement that a government powerful enough to do everything you want is also powerful enough to take away everything you have. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows that only 23% disagree with that statement. Eleven percent (11%) are not sure about it. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

The survey of 1,000 Likely U.S. Voters was conducted on April 16-17, 2012 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.
