In thinking about America today, please tell me whether you agree or disagree with the following statement:
“The very rich and powerful are above the law and when they do something wrong, they look out for each
other, using their power and connections to get special treatment.”
Agree: 84
Disagree: 14
Not sure: 2
This one in particular stands out to me. Most questions can’t seem to get below 30% support for the evil option, but even that group mostly recognizes that the game is rigged in favor of the rich and powerful.
I do wonder how much of the disconnect is in whgo gets considered part of the rich and powerful. Like, a lot of that 30% probably think specifically of liberal academics, celebrities, Democratic politicians, etc. and exclude or excuse people like Elon and Trump and whoever of his friends isn’t currently the scapegoat for why he isn’t ushering in the promised glorious reformation.

I mean after the Epstein Files you have to be either deliberately ignorant or incredibly dense to not realise the rich get off easily
