A new report released by the American Enterprise Institute (AEI), a right-leaning think tank, found an upward trend in Americans who believed the government should be doing more.



The report compared results from polls conducted by Gallup, Pew Research, and CBS and concluded that a growing number of Americans favored a "big government" that provided them with "more services."



In a 2020 Gallup poll, 54% of Americans said, "The government should do more to solve our country's problems." The results recorded by Gallup marked the first time in 20 years where a majority of respondents believed the government has a larger role.



The AEI report cited Pew Research and CBS surveys of U.S. adults regarding the size of government and the services it provides. A majority, 52%, of respondents said they would rather have a larger government with more services than one that is smaller with fewer services (45%), the AEI report read.

I wasn't a fan of the Iron Lady. She is better than all of them today though.

Everybody should have medical, dental, physiotherapy, prescription drugs, subsidized post secondary education(for some disciplines), affordable housing, and reasonably priced auto insurance. It doesn't matter who provides it.



We don't need subsidies for wind and solar and education dollars that divide people by race.

How about you get those things for yourself, if you want them, and the government can stop stealing from people....

You've worked for a promise that you'll get those things... not the actual dollar amount of what you put into the hat and what you'll get back.



It's basically a pyramid scheme of unfunded liabilities and a generation onwards will be left with nothing when these schemes go kaput.



Maybe you'll luck out, but somebody will be told to kick dirt...

IMO all companies should run based upon a supply and demand model, otherwise they don't deserve to exist.  If they need to sponge off tax payers to survive, then it's not really a business from a honest perspective.

Ditto!!



Any company that can't cut without govt funding (beyond a very brief span of new tech help when actually appropriate) "don't deserve to exist"

I agree Zetsu..



Big companies all support carbon taxes because we pay for it, and the government transfers our earnings to corporations.
