polls: Is the U.S. Congress less popular than Communism?
Advertisements [?]
Well a look at some recent polls might suggest just that.

Rasmussen notes that 11% of Americans actually support Communism while the RCP average of recent polls show that 12.3% of Americans support the current U.S. Congress which is a statistical dead heat. The RCP average of recent pulls show a 81.7% disapproval of the U.S. Congress. But when it comes to disapproval of Communism according to Rasmussen 77% say Communism is a failed system and the U.S. System is superior. 13% to 15% are not sure. So a total of 24% to 26% of Americans, roughly one fourth now either believe Communism is a better system or they are not sure.

From Rasmussen:

11% Say Communism Better Than U.S. System of Politics and Economics


77% U. S. system is morally superior
11% Communism is morally superior
13% Not Sure

Is communism a failed ideology?

77% Failed ideology
12% not failed ideology
15% not sure
