Turns out "convervative" to "very conservative" Americans actually like big government:
Very few conservatives said they favored reducing (or cutting out altogether) spending on any program. The least popular program proved to be childcare -- with a grand total of 20 percent of conservatives saying they'd slash it. The most popular is highways; only 6 percent want to cut spending there. Even bugaboos like welfare and foreign aid fare well, attracting the ire of only 15 percent of conservatives. Amazingly, the survey found that, on average, 54 percent of them actually wanted to increase spending.
Not a surprise, actually. It's fun to trash "big government," call for "reduced wasted spending," but it's another to actually go ahead and do something about it.
Of course, the mainstream conservative movement is hopelessly befuddled when it comes to policy. |
