Ridgewood NJ, A recent poll by the left leaning Pew Research Center found that a majority of Americans say the Democratic Party “too often sees government as the only way to solve problems.”
The Pew survey, conducted this summer among a national sample of 2,504 adults 18 years of age or older, found that 61 percent of Americans see the Democratic Party as too government-centered, believing that the state should be the only recourse for solving problems in society.
Among those surveyed,substantial percentages of self described Democrats or liberals believe that the Democratic Party has gone too far in turning to government as the universal problem solver. Thirty-eight percent of self-identified “liberals” agreed with the statement that the Democratic Party “too often sees government as the only way to solve problems,” while 44 percent of Democrats subscribed to that view.
