According to a new Gallup poll, roughly one in five Americans, or 22 percent, say the economy is underregulated. A near-majority, 47 percent, say there is too much regulation. About 27 percent say the amount of regulation is right.
The results of the poll are not all that shocking. They’re a continuation of a trend seen since late 2009. Every year Gallup has asked about regulation since then, between 45 and 50 percent of Americans say there is too much regulation, with between 20 and 30 percent each saying there is too little regulation or the right amount.
