Idiot 1 Percent Sets Agenda For America — Pollster Scott Rasmussen noticed after several months of surveys that a few out of every thousand espoused views far more radical than everyone else. In the aggregate, they were about 1 percent of responses.
And these respondents were invariably those who lived in zip codes of over 10,000 persons, had incomes greater than $150,000 and had graduate degrees.
Hey Penn Delco — or any school district — who does that sound like? His title starts with an S.
Rasmussen specifically surveyed those with these characteristics. He found they were 86 percent white with two-thirds being between 35 and 54. Forty-seven percent of them said Americans had too much freedom, with that rising to 69 percent of those most political.
That same percent of the most political also said it was right to cheat to win a close election. Compare this to 93 percent of Americans who say it’s always wrong.
Searing proof of the worthlessness of a grad degree is that 69 percent had a favorable view of Congress with 71 percent having one of journalists.
By the way:
- 77 percent of this 1 percent want to impose strict restrictions and rationing on the private use of gas, meat, and electricity.
- 72 percent of them favor banning gas powered vehicles.
- 69 percent of them favor banning gas stoves.
- 58 percent of them favor of banning sport utility vehicles.
- 55 percent of them favor banning non-essential air travel.
- 53 percent of them favor banning private air conditioning.
These are opposed by between 63 percent to 83 percent of most Americans.
Rasmussen said that the most radical were educated at Harvard, Yale, University of Pennsylvania, Northwestern, John’s Hopkins, Columbia, Stanford, Berkeley, Princeton, Cornell, MIT, and the University of Chicago.
These people are the enemy. They are cruel, heartless and indifferent to the suffering of others. Now, if they are inconvenienced or asked to sacrifice even in the slightest, you’ll hear it. But others? Not so much. Ask the Uyghurs.
They are lovers of money and comfort. Greed is their prime directive. They mouth altruism and concern but have carbon footprints most of us can only dream about.
This crowd has far greater influence in society that the average of American.
We must make it a priority to change this.
By the way, most of them are no where near as smart at they think they are so please make it a point that you don’t reinforce this for them.

Idiot 1 Percent Sets Agenda For America
That is a really scary bunch. Frankly, the only numbers I need to see are the ones that say this cohort wants less freedom and thinks it is okay to cheat on elections.
Out of touch and out of their minds.
They are communists. They are tyrants. They are evil and much worse.
