When people think about change, they think about returning to common sense priorities. They want to re-focus attention on problems here at home, and to invest in America and while reducing spending in Iraq. They support a broad range of investments – from education and training to rebuilding our infrastructure.
Polls about economic stimulus provided evidence in unexpected ways. In January 2008, Fortune magazine asked people’s opinion about how to repair the economy. Spending for public works received strong support, even with little support from the major parties. 67% of Americans favor "increasing government spending on things like public-works projects to help create jobs." Americans also believe "tax cutes JUST for low and middle income people (76%)," and "limiting rate increases on adjustable rate mortgages to keep them more affordable (75%)" are solid proposals to help the economy.
