"With few qualifiers, the results were clear: 57 percent of Americans said that socialism was incompatible with American values — only 29 percent believed otherwise."

"Americans divide into two dominant camps – 29% who have a positive view of capitalism and a negative view of socialism and 30% who have neutral opinions of both capitalism and socialism. The remaining 4-in-10 Americans hold a range of mixed views on the two economic systems."

"Support for UBI has grown particularly among Republicans. Today, about 26 percent of GOP voters support UBI for U.S. citizens and 61 percent oppose. In July 2018, less than 20 percent of GOP voters supported UBI and nearly 75 percent opposed — indicating a 37 percent increase in support for UBI among Republicans over less than two years.

Young American voters are more and more supporting UBI, with about 55 percent of those 18 to 39 years old saying they favor the economic plan and only 31 percent opposing. Almost two years ago, a little more than 40 percent of these young voters supported UBI while 37 percent opposed the plan."

"Well, it’s official: Republicans are now arguing that the US isn’t (& shouldn’t be) a democracy."
