Week Six EOC: Tax Cuts

First off when I started to read this article it is like every other politician they always ask questions that no one understands.  The questions are based upon what not many people would not understand.  If you want people to get involved with questions that have to deal with money then you have make the question so people would understand it.  These are very open ended questions.  This entire question hit really soft parts on people because since there is not that much money right now all the questions were asked about people wallets.  The way that these questions needed to be asked is right to the point.  You need to see if someone wants taxes raised not beat around the bush.  In the article that they needed to ask questions about the economy and needed to say that some of the tax cuts did not work and those are the ones that you should survey about.  Not to put a damper on a sour subject but I really just think that people need know more what they are talking about and if they don’t understand the survey then they should not take it.  The survey was a really good way to confuse people even more about where their tax money is going.  Like it said in the book too many open ended questions is not a good thing.  Using a double barrel question, gave people two things when they don’t understand one.  They needed to write clean and precise questions.   As we discussed in class today I really just think that questions should be asked right the first time.
