A majority. however. favor a mutual moratorium on weapons testing against targets in space. Constituents remain split over Central American policy with a plurality favoring limited military aid to El Salvador. but with a plurality opting for a cutoff of a aid to antiSandinista rebels in Nicaragua. On other questions. almost 50 percent are willing to pay more taxes to maintain medical care levels for older citizens. twothirds oppose paying more taxes to hike teacher pay in basic courses. a majority favor a flat income tax. a plurality oppose giving the States another chance to ratify the equal rights amendment. a majority approve of stiff penalties on employers who hire illegal aliens. and a majority think judges should be permitted to keep defendants accused of nonviolent crimes in jail if judges believe they may commit further criminal offenses. As usual. I also will supply the White House with a copy of the results.
