11/09/2007: "Democracy doesn't work 4/10 realize in USA"


Fewer than six-in-ten (57%) say they have a good deal of confidence in the wisdom of the American people when it comes to making political decisions, a seven-point decline over the past decade and a much steeper 20-point decline since 1964.

[ 40% of Americans have figured out that the Crowd will never figure it out. ]

The quality of the people since 1964 has also dropped. A qualified opinion will be present much more frequently with higher quality people, so the 20% drop could just be an adjustment for the declining capabilities of the recent multicultural population.
