Stimulus: Americans Want Less Taxes
Monday, February 9th, 2009 By Justin HigginsIf only the American people received a full list of the spending projects slated to be in the final version of the stimulus bill, it’d make their skin crawl. Rasmussen has done some polling and what the American people want and what they’re going to get are two completely different things:
With the Senate poised to vote Tuesday on an $827-billion version of the economic recovery plan, 62% of U.S. voters want the plan to include more tax cuts and less government spending.
Just 14% would like to move in the opposite direction with more government spending and fewer tax cuts, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey. Twenty percent (20%) would be happy to pass it pretty much as is, and five percent (5%) are not sure.
