>>Government is already doing more with less.

Kenneth, Are you really that ignorant, or are you just THAT stupid? The size and scope of the gov't has grown dramatically under the influence of the socialistic leaning democrats.

Most Voters Favor the Tax Cut Deal
Thursday, December 09, 2010 Email to a Friend ShareThis.Most voters like the tax cut deal President Obama made with congressional Republicans.

A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 56% of Likely U.S. Voters favor the agreement that extends the Bush tax cuts for all Americans for two more years, cuts the Social Security payroll tax rate for one year and renews long-term unemployment benefits for an additional 13 months. Just 29% oppose the deal, but 15% are not sure about it. (To see survey question wording, click here.)

Forty-nine percent (49%) of voters say the agreement will be good for the economy while just 28% disagree and think it will be bad for the economy. Nine percent (9%) say it will have no impact, and 14% more are not sure.

Seventy percent (70%) of Republicans and 51% of unaffiliated voters favor the tax cut agreement. A plurality of Democrats (48%) share that view but 38% of those in the president’s party are opposed.

Political liberals are evenly divided—43% favor the deal and 41% are opposed.

The survey of 1,000 Likely Voters nationwide was conducted on December 7-8, 2010 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points with a 95% level of confidence. Field work for all Rasmussen Reports surveys is conducted by Pulse Opinion Research, LLC. See methodology.

Many Democrats in Congress are angry about the tax cut deal. Do voters think the president is being too cooperative with Republicans? Become a Platinum member and find out.

Is less of a percentage of GDP actually less of an amount than the proceeding year? Never let the facts get in the way.
