(POLL) Most still favor smaller government


At a time when President Joe Biden is negotiating with Congress over the debt ceiling, most voters don’t think the government is using tax dollars wisely, and would prefer a smaller government.

That’s according to the latest Rasmussen Reports.

The survey found that just 25% of likely U.S. voters believe the government spends taxpayers’ money wisely and carefully, while 62% don’t think so.

Another 14% are not sure.

In 2019, 77% didn’t believe the government spent taxpayers’ money wisely and carefully.

Fifty-two percent (52%) favor a smaller government with fewer services and lower taxes over a more active one with more services and higher taxes.

Thirty-seven percent (37%) prefer a bigger, more expensive, more active government.

Eleven percent (11%) are undecided.

Support for smaller government has ranged from 52% to 70% in regular surveying since 2006.
