Government Is Not The Solution
Luckily America knows what the problem is. Too bad they didn’t realize this before election day in 2008.Â
59% Still Believe Government Is the Problem
In early October, as the meltdown of the financial industry gained momentum following the collapse ofLehman Brothers, a Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 59% of U.S. voters agreed withRonald Reagan that “government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem.”
Since then, the stock market has fallen roughly 3,000 points, millions of jobs have been lost, nearly a trillion dollars has been spent so far to bail out the financial industry, an additional $787-billion government stimulus package has been approved, and a new president has taken office who has proposed spending billions and billions more.
Despite all that, a new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey shows that the basic views of the American people have not change: 59% of voters still agree with Reagan’s inaugural address statement. Only 28% disagree, and 14% are not sure.
Unfortunately we have a President who believes the people are the problem and Government is the solution.
