  • However, the contrast with Republicans we should be drawing is that they are the only ones who want to give more tax cuts to big corporations and the wealthy. And those numbers are abominable, even among Republicans. Only 34 percent of Republicans think — agree with that Republican position.

    And, of course, the numbers are lower with Democrats and independents, with barely 20 percent of those groups agreeing with that. So, in these economic times, I think we want to play to our strengths on who we're fighting for when we engage in tax policy and who Republicans are fighting for.

  • Judy Woodruff:

    But, Doug Heye, is that what we're hearing from Democrats on the campaign trail?

  • Doug Heye:

    It's not, and it's startling.

    And I live on Capitol Hill, talk to a lot of Democrats on Capitol Hill. They were a bit mystified that this is what Biden decided to have, essentially, as the closing message, that the last thing, essentially — obviously, he will be on the campaign trail a little bit — the last big national thing that you hear from the president is not on the number one topic that drives American lives every day.

    You go to the grocery store, and something is more expensive than it was the last time. If you put gas in your car, it's much more expensive than it was certainly a year ago. It's down a little bit, but not compared to a year ago.

  • Judy Woodruff:

    Yes.

  • Doug Heye:

    And you see it on every — on something every day in your life.

  • Judy Woodruff:

    And, Joel Benenson, you just talked about — mentioned tax cuts, doing something about taxes. But what about the immediate issue of inflation? Are Democrats saying — are they making an adequate argument about what people are dealing with in their daily lives?

  • Joel Benenson:

    Well, I think we could make a stronger argument, as I just said.

    If you look at all the economic indicators, businesses and corporations are not hurting. And I think the people in America, and particularly working and middle-class people, are. We have profits up. They are having extraordinarily good years. And I'm a businessperson. I'm not anti-business here.
