Too Much Government?

http://www.futureofcapitalism.com/2009/09/too-much-government

A new Gallup poll finds 45% of Americans think there is "too much" government regulation of business and industry, while 24% think there is too little. The same poll finds 57% think "government is trying to do too many things that should be left to individuals and businesses," while 38% think "government should do more to solve our country's problems."

Byron York of the Washington Examiner and Senator Jim DeMint pointed the way to this one. The poll is based on phone interviews with 1,026 adults. The Gallup site has historical data, too.
