September 4, 2024: Fifty-six percent (56%) of voters believe cutting taxes on business is either very good (20%) or somewhat good (36%) for the economy. A Scott Rasmussen national survey conducted by RMG Research found that 29% believe that it is either somewhat bad (19%) or very bad (10%) to cut taxes on businesses.
The survey also found that 53% of voters believe that if U.S. taxes on business are higher than those of other countries, large companies will move much of their business to other countries. Eighteen percent (18%) disagree.
Methodology
The survey of 1,000 registered voters was conducted online by Scott Rasmussen on August 26-27, 2024. Fieldwork for the survey was conducted by RMG Research, Inc. Certain quotas were applied, and the sample was lightly weighted by geography, gender, age, race, education, internet usage, and political party to reasonably reflect the nation’s population of registered voters. Other variables were reviewed to ensure that the final sample is representative of that population. The margin of sampling error for the full sample is +/- 3.1 percentage points.
Note: Scott Rasmussen is the president of RMG Research, Inc. He hosts "The Scott Rasmussen Show" on Merit Street Media Sunday mornings at 10 Eastern.
