An overwhelming majority of likely American voters prefer a free market over a socialist economic system, according to a Rasmussen poll.
The poll, which was conducted at the beginning of the month, revealed that 74 percent of the people surveyed support a free market. Conversely, only 13 percent of people questioned would prefer a socialist economic system. Another 13 percent said they were undecided.

Not reported; How many people polled were under the age of 40? Of those, what percentage polled felt that they knew what Socialism actually is?
This despite the fact that many of them are, on a personal level, complete screw-ups who live very dysfunctional lives.
She’ll win. Doesn’t matter. Our only hope is redistricting. Fat chance.
Spending other people’s money is wonderful until...
Ocuckoo Cortez running on her race klan platform. Ocasio-Cortez is just Hugo Chavez in drag. She wants to institute all the failed policies that made Puerto Rico and Venezuela and other Latin American nations undesirable places to live if not outright shitholes. The same policies that caused her and her family to flee to a majority white America. We have nothing to learn from Latin Americans and they have nothing to show us.
She framed her candidacy in racial terms and as a campaign against whites and won. Funny how so called anti-racists like Antifag and the (((media))) have no problem with race baiting when it comes from the left and non-whites and in fact champion it as “progress”. Will Bobby De niro be threatening to punch her lights out?
Now self hating, virtue signaling white males are being thrown overboard in the Democrat party by the growing rainbow coalition. That wasn’t supposed to happen. A fire bell in the night indeed and this is probably just the first of many more.
Half the public has no idea what socialism means.
...but will STILL vote for Socialists because he/she will throw a tantalizing lie into their faces or push the one issue button. The American voter is pretty retarded. It is a shock, miracle and amazing turn of events that we have President Trump.
Her beliefs are the same as those of the DSA’s “Progressive Caucus” in the House. 80 or so hard core commies, 3rd largest caucus in the House
The young idiots don’t realize the first rise of a major socialist regime was the German Workers Socialist Party (NAZIS) of WWII Germany. There is a staggering level of ignorance and stupidity out there.
Actually, there is one exception— Chile. They showed us how to successfully privatize social security and how to get rid of a Communist president.
She stole from the tip jar
How many of those 13% are college kids or people just a few years out of college who have little to no experience with it and were just told it was wonderful by their socialist college profs? Many of those will wise up.
Yes, the commies/socialists are very good at killing masses of people. When the leaders are removed from their throne they either have to be publicly executed or put in a cage for life or they will be back. Obama comes to mind.
Eh, not exactly, they were the second. The first was actually the Bolsheviks of Russia. Let’s not forget about them, as they predated the Nazis.
I think most people are very open to the possibility (or probability) that they or their children will be very financially successful someday. So this rings true.
Actually, that means 26% are clueless and cannot grasp free market capitalism is far superior.
