Debt, by state

As we all know, government spending is up. Not just on the federal level, but on the state level too.
So its worth knowing what your debt is, in the state that you are in, for the state that you are in.

CNN: Majority find government a great threat to liberty

The other day, a very liberal friend of mine was suggesting that I was paranoid for not trusting my government. (I wanted to point out to him that a couple of years ago, he was the one who didn't trust his government... but nevermind.)
CNN just did a poll, and found out the following:

Fifty-six percent of people questioned in a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey released Friday say they think the federal government's become so large and powerful that it poses an immediate threat to the rights and freedoms of ordinary citizens. Forty-four percent of those polled disagree.

Are you paranoid if the majority of Americans agree with you? Or are we all just tightly wound?
