NEW.JERSEYANS DISAPPROVE OF NEW TAXES; MOST THINK SPENDING CUTS COULD HAVE BEEN GREATER AND THAT TAX PACKAGE WILL HURT MIDDLE CLASS By very large margins, a majority of New Jerseyans disapprove of most parts of the package of new taxes recently passed by the State Legislature and signed into law by Governor Florio. Of all the various increases in state taxes recently enacted, the only one which is supported by a majority of residents is the higher tax on alcohol, cigarettes and tobacco, according to the latest Star-Ledger/Eagleton Poll. In addition, an overwhelming majority of 7-in-lU New Jerseyans also feel that the Governor and Legislature could have made taxes. And, by a margin of in some state services rather 4-to-i greater cuts in state spending before raising most of the public says they would prefer reductions than increases in their taxes. The latest survey, which was conducted by telephone with 800 New Jersey adults between July 2 and 10, also finds that 3-in-4 residents believe middle income people and people like themselves will be hurt by the new tax package, while equally large majorities feel that rich people and big corporations will not be affected much by the changes. The public is divided about what impact the tax package will have on the state s economy, with 4-in-lO thinking it will hurt the economy and help. i-ma thinking it will A ITENTTON RADIO STATIONS: -more Audio is available after 5:00 p.m. on Sanwday, July 21, 1990 from (Wi) (Rutgers Feature Phone).

Specifically, about 4-to-i against, large majorities of New Jerseyans say they disapprove of higher people with incomes under $35,000 (81% compared to 63%). By very wide margins of the threshold for the higher rates are much more likely to disapprove than are single compared to 25 percent who approve.

Also, 71 think the new taxes will hurt middle income people, and an equally large number--75 perceives some potential winners and losers. Seventy-seven percent of New Jerseyans In regard to the possible impact of the new tax package, the public clearly increase in taxes. The remainder offer no firm opinion. in some state government services compared to 16 percent who would choose an fewer services or higher taxes, 63 percent of residents say they would prefer a reduction remaining 14 percent offer no opinion. In addition, when faced with a choice between only 14 percent think that spending was cut as much as could have been done. The could have made more cuts in state spending before resorting to tax increases, while Most New Jerseyans--72 percent--feel that the Governor and State Legislature generating some anger out there. that every time they turn around they re paying more in taxes for something and it s very distressed about taxes at the moment. I think many people right now are feeling Bob Carter, Associate Director for the Poll, commented, The public is clearly smokers who endorse the increase by a 76 to 21 percent margin. happy about the increase, disapproving by a 52 to 47 percent margin, compared to non approve raising these taxes, while 30 percent disapprove. Smokers are not nearly as on alcohol, cigarettes and tobacco.

Only 12 percent of the public thinks the rich will be hurt by the new taxes, while 13 percent say it will help them and a majority of 71 percent feels it will not make much of a difference to the wealthy. Similarly, 15 percent statewide think big corporations will be hurt while an equal number say they will be helped, and 63 percent say the new taxes will make no difference for such companies. Carter added that while Governor Florio has stressed the message that the new state budget and tax plan is designed to provide relief down the road for the middle class in New Jersey, the public by and large doesn t yet see it that way. The public is divided about the possible impact of the tax package on New Jersey s economy. Forty-three percent say it will hurt the state s economy, while 25 percent think it will help and another 25 percent say it will not make much of a difference one way or the other. The public expresses no clear preference for sales tax compared to income tax increases as sources of new revenue. Thirty-two percent of New Jerseyans say the increase and expansion of the state sales tax is very or somewhat acceptable to them, compared to 29 percent who say the increase in the state income tax is very or somewhat acceptable Copyright, July 22, 1990, The Eagleton Institute and Newark Star-Ledger.
