Rasmussen: 59% Of Americans Agree With Reagan, “Government Is The Problem”
Say Anything —
... As Obama lays out more and more spending, creating more and more government, to fix our economy Americans are telling pollsters that they agree with Ronald Reagan. Government isn’t the solution to our problems. Government is the problem. ...
Dustbowl Days?
Power Line —
... Hence this poll result: 59 percent of Americans agree with the proposition that "government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem." That is consistent with a lot of other recent poll data. My sense is that a great many Americans are rather sullen as they watch the government gleefully plotting to expropriate more of their wealth and take ever greater control over their lives. What the Democrats are doing is fundamentally unAmerican. That may not have been obvious in 1932, but it is pretty clear now. ...

... American people were demanding President Obama radically remold the country in his image the American people hold a much different opinion on the proper role of government. Funny how seeing the annual deficit balloon from a "Bush spends like a firggin' drunken sailor" $500 billion to a "Holy flurking schmidt!" $3.5 trillion (that number is my back envelope calculation, BTW) in one year tends to jaundice the public towards Washington. Especially since a large majority of the country knows where the actual blame lies: In early October, as the meltdown of the financial industry ...

Has Obamanomics Vanquished Reaganomics?
Opinionator —
... on the bureaucrat gods to hand out our rewards for living. Reagan touched something inherent in America, he did not befuddle or fool America with misleading sound bites. He tapped into our spirits and reminded us we can get through tough times. There is no undoing that, nor the policies that line up with that kind of thinking. (Strata notes that a new Rassmusen poll on Reagan’s famous saying that “government is not the solution to our problem; government is the problem” found that “ 59% of voters still agree with Reagan’s inaugural address statement. Only 28% disagree, and 14% ...

Sahil Kapur: America's Self-Defeating Attitude on Health Care Reform
Politics on HuffingtonPost.com —
... A sea of Americans view government as innately flawed and incapable of improving their conditions. Many of these individuals, instead of voting for candidates interested in ameliorating their health care woes, elect those who believe government should stay out of their lives. And so the tide persists as a self-defeating, self-fulfilling prophecy. ...
