2. All the DU'ing in the world ain't-a gonna help that poll.
Their audience and their employees are the RepubliCON investor class, Reaganomics disciples the whole way. Their audience IS the rich.

13. Honestly, I thought it would be 70/30 in favor of union busting.
This station is a bastion of laissez-fail pro-corporatist agitprop.

11. All the more reason
Edited on Tue Feb-22-11 11:53 AM by pscot
to vote. These people are convinced that bashing public sector unions has no downside. They think it's a popular position. If we turn that around on as poll like this one, we hit at the heart of the beast.

8. Amazing.... more people are voting for the budget to
be fixed on the unions backs. One comment... "Everyone has to tighten their belts, why not unions!"

Don't people realize the one segment of the population that has NEVER tightened their belt is the wealthy!! Come on!!

TAX THE WEALTHY!! It is only taking away what was "temporarily" given them.

bastards

10. CNBC is Republican... as are many of the rich. Of course they
are not going to vote to tax the wealthy! So I wouldn't worry too much about this pole. But if one isn't bias....How can anyone justify taxing working people rather than the rich. I just can't understand that thinking!

I'd like to see a national poll including all of America as to how the general public thinks who needs to pay more taxes or should we just keep cutting into programs and services and let the rich keep all their "unearned" income.

14. Yep. Anyone who says CNBC is "liberal" . . . doesn't watch it.
If it were only a step further to the right, there'd be American flags, loaded questions and Glenn Beck.
