摘要

Public opinion will not help Congress decide how to deal with the fiscal cliff-the congressional agreement under the Budget Control Act to raise taxes and cut spending in 2013 that cquld devastate a weak economy if passed. In their annual assessment of American public opinion, the authors find that Americans only agree that taxes for the wealthy and big business should be raised. As for cutting social programs, they are lukewarm at best. How can we solve the problem?rnIn trying to deal with the "fiscal cliff," public opinion is not going to be very helpful in resolving many of the tough budgetary and tax issues facing Congress and the president. First, there are huge partisan differences among the American public on taxes and spending cuts. Second, with the exception of the widespread view that high-income people and large corporations should be paying higher taxes, Americans are divided on how to cut the federal budget deficit.
