62% think the bogus compromise debt ceiling deal wouldn’t lead to any real cuts over 10 years

crybaby-boehnerS&P obviously doesn’t think the debt ceiling raising  bill will lead to any significant cuts in the next tens years, so why should the American people? 62% of those polled by Rasmussen doubt that the so called “spending cuts” in the bill will actually happen. I’m with those 62%.

Seventy-seven percent (77%) of the Political Class believe it’s likely a trillion dollars of government spending will be cut in the next 10 years, while 69% of Mainstream voters view that as unlikely.
Most Republicans (78%) and voters not affiliated with either political party (62%) think it’s not likely spending will be cut by a trillion dollars over the next decade. Democrats are evenly divided.
Fifty-one percent (51%) of Democrats believe Congress is likely to allow the automatic spending cuts across the board if a deal isn’t reached in time. Fifty-five percent (55%) of GOP voters and 50% of unaffiliateds believe it’s not likely these cuts will be permitted.
