Rasmussen’s Capitalism vs. Socialism Poll: Do Americans Even Understand the Question

Posted in Public Opinion on April 9th, 2009 by John H – Be the first to comment

In a recent telephone survey, Rasmussen asked whether people thought capitalism or socialism was better and only 53% of adults responded capitalism was better.

Only 53%, are you serious!?  Who is Rasmussen calling?  How can just 53% favor capitalism while only 14% believe the government would do a better job at running the auto or even less believe it would be good at running the financial firms?

The text messages are quite clear, “US R SSINF.”
