Americans are overwhelmingly angry at the U.S. government and is nearly as let down by the lack of ideas from both political
parties, a new poll by Rasmussen Reports revealed Tuesday.
Sixty-six percent of voters in a national poll said they're angry at the policies of the federal government,
including 36 percent who counted themselves as very angry.
Thirty percent are not really angry, including 10 percent of whom say they aren't angry at all.
Among those most angry are Republicans -- 90 percent of whom say they are somewhat or very angry. Seventy-seven percent
of independents are angry and just 44 percent of Democrats are peeved.
Among those suggesting anger abounds falls a majority of Republicans, Democrats and independents -- 59 percent overall
-- who say the anger is greater now than it was during the Bush administration.
But few believe that the political parties have an answer. Of those surveyed, 60 percent said neither Republicans nor
Democrats understand what is needed and among those who claimed to be very angry, that number rises to 80 percent.
Forty-three percent of people say they are at least partly concerned that the anger could turn violent. That fear breaks
down among party lines with 63 percent of Democrats saying they are concerned and 71 percent of Republicans saying they are
not concerned. Sixty-one percent of independents are also not concerned.
Additionally, those who are most angry are least concerned about violence. Among the 36 percent who are very angry at
the government, only 15 percent say they are very concerned about the possibility of violence. But 51 percent of those who
are not angry at all say they fear violence.
The poll of 1,000 adults was taken Sept. 20-21 and has a margin of error of 3 points.
Sen. John Ensign (R-Nev.) received a handwritten note Thursday from Joint Committee on Taxation Chief of Staff Tom Barthold
confirming the penalty for failing to pay the up to $1,900 fee for not buying health insurance.
Violators could be charged with a misdemeanor and could face up to a year in jail or a $25,000 penalty, Barthold wrote
on JCT letterhead. He signed it "Sincerely, Thomas A. Barthold."
The note was a follow-up to Ensign's questioning at the markup.
Health Care Mandate Sparks Constitutional Debate The constitution allows the federal government to regulate interstate
commerce but legal experts argue the insurance requirement is just an attempt to dictate personal behavior.

The requirement that everyone buy health insurance -- a central element to President Obama's health care plan -- is flatly
unconstitutional, legal experts argue.
Finance Committee Democrat Won’t Read
Text of Health Bill, Says Anyone Who Claims They’ll Understand It ‘Is Trying to Pull the Wool Over Our Eyes’ Friday, October
02, 2009 By Nicholas Ballasy, Video Reporter
(CNSNews.com) - Sen. Thomas Carper (D.-Del.), a member of the Senate Finance Committee, told CNSNews.com that he
does not “expect” to read the actual legislative language of the committee’s health care bill because it
is “confusing” and that anyone who claims they are going to read it and understand it is fooling people.
“I
don’t expect to actually read the legislative language because reading the legislative language is among the more confusing
things I’ve ever read in my life,” Carper told CNSNews.com.
Carper described the type of language the actual text of the bill would finally be drafted in as "arcane," "confusing,"
"hard stuff to understand," and "incomprehensible." He likened it to the "gibberish" used in credit card
disclosure forms.
Last week, the Finance Committee considered an amendment offered by Sen. Jim Bunning (R-Ky.) that
would have required the committee to post the full actual language of the proposed legislation online for at least
72 hours before holding a final committee vote on it. The committee defeated the amendment 13-10.
