This doesn’t surprise me. The “Green New Deal” is filled with a bunch of feel good environmentalism and give-aways to the poor and middle class, and its all paid for by the mythical “rich.” Americans have lost any ability to perform an honest cost-benefit analysis of legislation. Their analysis comes down to “environment = good” and “business = bad” and “the rich can pay for everything.”
It amazes me that people will believe these polls. Does anyone really think that the polls have all of a sudden become honest and accurate since 2016?
I have been polled before, and, if the topic is controversial, such as abortion, there is ALWAYS one question that is a monkey wrench question, thrown in to corral people into a desired outcome.
Once, the questions were about prayer in school. After answering in the affirmative that I did support prayer in school, I was asked the question: “Should students be forced to pray in school?”
How do you force a student to pray? You can’t. Has anyone ever insisted that students should be forced to pray? Of course not. It was a smear disguised as a question to put people on the defensive.
