Survey results released last week are as stark as they are unsurprising. According to Rasmussen Reports, 80% of likely U.S. voters say the federal government is corrupt, and 44% declare it “very corrupt.” Only 14% believe corruption in Washington is minimal. How many of the 14% are employed by or benefit from this corruption?
Young Americans are living in a micro-world of rising costs, precarious jobs, and deferred dreams. At the same time, the political class continues to speak in macro-terms of grand strategy and ideological crusades.

Rasmussen Report’s new survey of voters under 40 paints a stark picture. Most believe the economy is unfair to them, and a majority would even support a law to confiscate Americans’ “excess wealth” (second homes, luxury cars, boats) to help young people buy a first home. Fifty-five percent endorse that idea, but just 38% oppose it. Only 29% of individuals under 40 are homeowners, and many feel “stuck,” lonely, or in crisis.
A new Rasmussen Reports survey reveals that 40% of Americans now believe the minimum wage should be at least $15 an hour, up from 36% a year ago. That’s a strong sentiment. After all, who doesn’t want working Americans to earn more? But compassion and sound economics are two very different things.
One of the keys to President Donald Trump’s political success is his unpredictability. He keeps both domestic opponents and foreign adversaries off balance by refusing to follow the well-worn playbook of his presidential predecessors.
