Plurality Believes the Spendulus Hurt the Economy
Sweet. And here I was about ready to give up on the whole American experiment, but it seems there's reason for hope. Americans learn:
The new survey found that just 29% believe last year’s economic stimulus plan has helped the economy while 43% believe it hurt. Not surprisingly, there is little appetite for another round. By a 69% to 15% margin, voters believe tax cuts is a better way to create jobs rather than more government spending.
Last week, President Obama was telling the G20 that more spending would bring around their national debt-saddled economies. They ignored him and pledged to cut deficit spending by half instead. It looks like they can learn too.
