Dr. Jewell is interested in measuring people’s attitudes toward proposed tax cuts. One of his items reads, "People who support cutting taxes are not well informed about how the government works." What is the problem with this question?

The problem with this question is that it is a "LEADING QUESTION". And leading questions are always undesirable.

Explanation: Leading question are those questions undesirable questions, that prompts or encourages one to give an answer in a particular way.

For someone to ask this question, such person may want to get a harsh reply or an abusive response. Which may help them in their argument. With a full knowledge of the fact that the masses wants a tax cut from the government, he went further to make such a comment as question. The person actually wants a particular way of response, which will definitely help them in wining their argument.

Leading questions are mostly questions that makes us feel tense and unable to hide from the truth.
