What do econ bloggers think about government and the economy
Every quarter the Kaufman foundation polls a group of "leading economics bloggers" (which means, not Angus!) on a bunch of questions.
The one I found most interesting was "Is the federal government too involved in the U.S. economy?"
63% said yes! This is on page 5 of the report linked above.
Page 11 of the report reveals that only 9% of the respondents are registered Republicans.
***update*** the above sentence should say only 9% identified themselves as registered Republicans!
The whole report is (still) well worth reading.
Labels: ask and ye shall receive, economic policy

Page 11 of the report reveals that 9% described themselves as registered Republicans, 21% as registered Democrats, 31% as Independent/Others, and 39% declined to describe themselves politically.
It's likely that somewhat more than 9% are registered Republicans.
Well spotted, sorry for the error.
