Tax Views
State By State

A quarter century after Ronald Reagan rode the tax revolt to the White House, Americans continue to believe that tax cuts help the economy and tax hikes hurt. Since early April, Rasmussen Reports has polled about general tax issues in 33 states. All 33 conform to the national trend, varying only in degree (see State-by-State Tax Data). Massachusetts, not surprisingly, was the least enthusiastic state concerning the economic benefits of tax cuts. Just 44% of Bay Staters believe tax cuts are good for the economy while 25% say they hurt. Michigan has the highest percentage who believe that tax cuts hurt the economy--28%. At the other extreme are Georgia and Oklahoma--in both states 63% say tax cuts are good for the economy and 15% take the opposite view. In 24 of the 33 states, a majority believe that tax cuts are beneficial. In 29 of 33 states, a plurality or majority said that the tax preparation is worse than a trip to the dentist. See State-by-State Tax Data. Rasmussen Reports is an electronic publishing firm specializing in the collection, publication, and distribution of public opinion polling information.
