Nyah, nyah, nyah. Told you so, told you so:
WASHINGTON, D.C. -- Americans' concerns about the threat of big government continue to dwarf those about big business and big labor, and by an even larger margin now than in March 2009. The 64% of Americans who say big government will be the biggest threat to the country is just one percentage point shy of the record high, while the 26% who say big business is down from the 32% recorded during the recession. Relatively few name big labor as the greatest threat.
I feel like the hero in one of those schlocky 1950s horror movies who keeps telling people about the monster he saw, even though they keep telling him he's crazy, until it finally eats a few of them and he is vindicated. "The blob is coming, the blob is coming, and it's getting bigger and bigger!"
I caught that movie on cable recently, by the way (the brilliant 1958 version, not the crappy remake), and realized that the woman who played Steve McQueen's teenage girlfriend was the same actress who later played Andy's girlfriend Helen Crump on the Andy Griffith show. Goooollllllleee.
