Poll: Govt Growth Bigger Concern Than Default

POLITICO reports:

More Americans are worried about the growth of government than by a risk of default if Congress doesn't lift the nation's credit limit, according to a poll released Monday.

Pew Research Center for the People & the Press and The Washington Post found that 47 percent of Americans are more concerned about the effects of raising the debt ceiling, compared to 42 percent of Americans who are more concerned about the consequences of not raising it.
