“Adam Smith would be proud. While all the media attention is focused on the G-20, the American people are looking in a different direction for solutions to the global economic slowdown,” Scott Rasmussen, founder and publisher of Rasmussen Reports, explains. “By a nearly two-to-one margin, voters say decisions U.S. business owners make will do more for the economy than pronouncements by the world leaders gathered in London.”

Makes sense to me. Business leaders make staffing decisions, make payroll, determine where and when to expand, etc. Politicians do none of the above.

A very satisfying part of the survey is where by a margin of two to one Americans would like the world to be more like Americans than vice versa. That seem to go against the "arrogance" comment and thought process that the President made against the American people.
