Big Majority Supports Public Spending for Jobs

A new Gallup poll
finds that public support for new federal spending to create jobs is, as Greg Sargent puts it,
“simply overwhelming.”

Key findings: 72% support federal spending “to put people to work on urgent infrastructure
repairs” and
72% support a “federal jobs creation law that would spend
government money for a program designed to create more than 1 million
new jobs.”
