I agree with Jakestraw's reply to your post. - "As more factors of production come under government control, the more inefficient our entire economy becomes. Inefficiency lowers productivity, stifles competitiveness and lowers living standards."

Focusing on polled opinions rather than economic reality (since the poll was your point, even if it is a less important one), while people may feel the government is not doing enough for jobs, many of them also feel the government is doing too much in general. It could be an issue of how the polls are worded, or it could be that people don't see what Obama and congress have done and are doing, as being actions that help make their job more secure or in general help the economy grow.
