What do we want to measure?

If we were to incorporate a poverty reduction plan into our question, I wonder if we would need to state the specifics of what this would entail (considering our respondents may want to satisfy their curiosity as to how/why such a plan may succeed).

For instance, should we include a follow-up question such as: "Which method of a poverty reduction plan would be most favoured by you?" A.) Increased provincial minimum wage B.) Increased provincial welfare payments C.) Decreased federal income taxation for those who fall below the national poverty line

(***I've just included a provincial/federal element here, but not too sure whether it's necessary...any thoughts?***)
