72% won't support a socialist but 100% of Democrats are going to vote for him anyways... Getting the nomination is the only thing stopping Bernie... Sounds like paid research from his opponents trying to bring the top guy down...
Those who are against socialists are the ones who are paying for it
Really? Socialism means workers owning the means of production, like worker co-operatives. So instead of a top-down authoritarian hierarchy, the workers are the owners and their own bosses.
It has nothing to do with taxes or the government.
Lol. 72% of the voters have no idea what a socialist is.
You're right. But, that will play right into the Trump 2020 hands. He'll brand everything on the left "Socialism" and his base will lap it up like spoiled milk.
Americans have different ideas of what socialism means. This Gallup poll shows all the various meanings that respondents gave. It's all over the place. Everyone seems to have their own idea on what it means.
...polls show American voters across the country – in particular, young people and Democrats – increasingly warming to socialism over capitalism.
Part of the increase in support for socialism may also come from differing views over the meaning of the term.
While Merriam Webster defines “socialism” as government ownership of production, and/or the abolition of private property – in line with how the word has been used historically – many Americans now think the word simply applies to the policies of prosperous nations with robust social safety nets like Denmark and Sweden.
Lol at all of you trying to stick up for socialism. You can call it whatever you want. We all know what you guys want and we, the American people, reject it.
