    A survey of 160 CEOs in northeastern Wisconsin found that over half opposed the federal government's economic stimulus plan, with opposition highest at around 83% among those very familiar with the plan. The biggest concern seemed to be the balance between tax cuts and spending in the plan. The survey conductor concluded that the CEO attitudes mirrored concerns expressed by Republicans about the stimulus package as it was being crafted.

    State CEOs oppose stimulus plan, survey shows


    Milwaukee Journal Sentinel February 16, 2009
    Paul Gores Text

    More than half of northeastern Wisconsin chief


    executives surveyed about the federal government’s
    economic stimulus plan say they are opposed to it.

    The Nicolet National Bank Business Pulse survey of 160


    CEOs, conducted between Jan. 27 and Feb. 3, found that
    57% were opposed to the plan, 23% favored it and 20%
    weren’t sure. Opposition to the plan was highest - about
    83% - among those who said they were very familiar with
    the plan.

    The biggest concern seemed to be the balance between


    tax cuts and spending.

    “I think it pretty much says the CEOs wanted to see a


    little bigger shift to the tax-cut side,” David G. Wegge,
    president of IntellectualMarketing, Green Bay, which
    conducted the survey, said today.

    Wegge concluded that the CEO attitudes about the


    stimulus package seem to mirror concerns that
    Republicans in the House and Senate expressed about it
    as it was being crafted.
