The survey was conducted by the Committee to Unleash Prosperity (CUP), a Maryland-based non-profit advocacy group.

The organization polled members of America’s 1 per cent – defined as people who have a postgraduate degree and an annual income of more than $150,000.

77 per cent of elitists who were asked, “To fight climate change, would you favor or oppose the strict rationing of gas, meat and electricity?” said they would favor such a policy.

That figure rises even higher to 89 per cent amongst Ivy League graduates.

Presumably, their wealth will ensure they are exempt from such rationing while poor people can go whistle.

In addition, 69 per cent of elitists want an immediate ban on gas stoves, while 81 per cent want gas powered vehicles outlawed.

A majority also want the government to forbid the use of air conditioning and non-essential air travel, effectively outlawing vacations, rules that presumably won’t apply to their private jets and luxury compounds.

67 per cent of elitists also believe that teachers should decide what children are taught compared to 26 per cent who think parents should decide.

The poll also reveals how the elite are totally at odds with the general public in both lifestyle and beliefs.

When canvassed on how much freedom the United States should bestow on its citizens, 47 per cent said people had too much freedom compared to 21 per cent who said there was too much control.

In comparison, 57 per cent of voters said there was too much control compared to 16 per cent who said there was too much freedom.

74 per cent say their finances are getting better, while just 20 per cent of the general public say the same.

A whopping 84 per cent also approve of the job Joe Biden is doing as president, while recent polls show Biden has an approval rating of around 39 per cent with general voters.

“The people who run America, or at least think they do, live in a bubble of their own construction,” write the poll’s authors.
“They’ve isolated themselves from everyday America’s realities to such a degree their views about what is and what should be happening in this country differ widely from the average America.”

Whelp. There ya go. I bet you'd find the same results with just post-grad degrees. But they probably won't do that study.
 
Why do socialist ideas appeal to upperclass whites and right wing ideas appeal to working class? Shit is backwards.

Because ivy league university level education, the realm of more wealthy people, has been infected with communists for at least 80 years. Communism is just the M.O. The one world order with antichrist as the dystopian christ is the goal.
 
I know more than one person who claims they are conservative, but in deeds...they are straight up socialists. They are grifters.
That's anyone who accepts a social security check, EBT benefits, rental assistance, gov health care, etc

Yeah, just different socialist programs — farm subsidies, corporate bailouts, defense budgets, federal reserve, "public health", public education, etc. Very few conservatives oppose this stuff.
 
Well accepting tax dollars is different from promoting socialist policies.
I don't see it in that light. I shouldn't be taxed for "social security" to begin with, especially when it is likely the system will collapse prior to being able to receive any.

I agree, I'm just saying that I don't think one needs to avoid accepting tax dollars to be anti-socialist.
 
I have heard that for 50 years. It's a political football and that will always be said.
That's because collapse is the end result of all socialist-communist policy. A grift collapses because it's human greed based. That doesn't mean that fear tactic won't be played politically against old people, who, because they accept a socialist type of system, are forever hooked and counting on it without making other arrangements. It's obvious that it's not enough to live on anyways. A slave to a check in a mailbox, just to slowly lose all you accumulate through traditional capitalist means because you sell it off to keep your head above water and maintain a living standard that probably should've been self regulated a little better from the get-go.
 
Elite. I hate that term. As far as I’m concerned these people who think they’re elites are only allowed to think that. It can change instantly. Not in this country. I retired from a federal prison. The only reason I did my job and retired was because I was allowed to by inmates. Think about that. Biden talking about fighting the government with at-15’s scoffed and said you need f-16’s….they don’t realize how those ar-15’s will be used…

The people who paid into the SS trustfund didn't loot the program's money......it was your Post Constitutional politicians and deepstate starting in 1971 that began collapsing the system both Democrat and Republican alike.....the very same ones in power right now knowingly carrying out the acceleration towards the end game since 1971 after the Nixon by executive order removed the Unite States from the gold standard. After that it has been a money printing free for all.

I didn't see anyone in Congress blocking Nixon from doing what he did.....did you? Nixon needed money for Vietnam which the Congress was not going to give him to surge the War in Vietnam and after the announcement countries started demanding their GOLD back that they deposited into the US after WWII due to the Bretton Woods agreement.
