WIN: New poll opposes cuts to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid


2/15/2012


A new poll from United Technologies/National Journal Congressional Connection shows strong opposition to making any cuts at all to Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid.

The poll also shows strong support among the American people for cutting the military budget. Seventy-six percent of Americans say no cuts at all to Social Security. Eighty percent say no cuts at all to Medicare.

The poll also found that 51 percent of Americans say the middle class has suffered the most during the economic downturn.   Fifty four percent agreed that “high unemployment has left more people in need of government assistance."
