Update \u2013 Poll Results"},"content":{"rendered":"\n<p>In my last update on the American Majority Project, I walked you through how Americans vastly prefer Free Market Capitalism to Big Government Socialism \u2013 and that if the next election were to be seen as a choice between Republicans and Big Government Socialists, that Republicans would win in a landslide.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In this update, I want to dig further into some of the underlying cultural issues behind the American people\u2019s rejection of Big Government Socialism.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Our polling revealed a key underlying belief: Americans don\u2019t believe that our government is looking out for their interests.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, when asked which of the following statements about the state of America most represented their views, swing voters said:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>People who run for office are in it for themselves:&nbsp;<strong>77<\/strong><\/li><li>People who run for office are in it for people like me:&nbsp;<strong>23<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>People in government think they know what\u2019s best for us but they don\u2019t:&nbsp;<strong>70<\/strong><\/li><li>Our elected leaders and public servants are doing the best they can to represent the values and interests of the people they serve:&nbsp;<strong>30<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>Lobbyists and corrupt politicians are rigging the game to benefit the wealthy and powerful at the expense of people like me:&nbsp;<strong>68<\/strong><\/li><li>America\u2019s laws and regulations protect people like me from exploitation by the rich and powerful:&nbsp;<strong>31<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Our polling also illustrates how this principle can be applied to specific issues such as health care, spending, and social justice.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When asked which of the following statements about current issues most represented their views, swing voters said:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>We should fix health care in America by putting patients and doctors in charge instead of insurance companies and big government:&nbsp;<strong>75<\/strong><\/li><li>We should fix health care in America by giving the government more power to protect patients:&nbsp;<strong>25<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The recent price increases in food, fuel, and other essential goods will get worse if government continues its reckless spending:&nbsp;<strong>65<\/strong><\/li><li>More funding for education, the environment, and the social safety net is worth the risk of inflation:&nbsp;<strong>35<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<ul><li>The government should treat me equally under the law:&nbsp;<strong>64<\/strong><\/li><li>The government should treat me in a way that achieves equal outcomes for all groups of people:&nbsp;<strong>36<\/strong><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>We have prepared a slide deck with other key poll results, including cross-tab data, illustrating these principles which you can download&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/americanmajorityproject.createsend1.com\/t\/t-i-cjuodt-l-r\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer
