Do you want to be rich? 61% of us say "yes"! Democrats just as likely to say they would like to be rich if given a choice as Republicans. However.....only a third of us say it's likely we ever will be rich. And most of those are young people. news.gallup.com/poll/235439/pa…

Clear majority of Americans still say that having a rich class of people benefits the nation. As we would expect, however, big differences in how Republicans and Democrats view the pluses of having a rich class for our society. news.gallup.com/poll/235439/pa…

Most proposals to prevent mass school shootings viewed by public as at least somewhat effective. Arming teachers and school officials, however, is at the bottom of the effectiveness list. news.gallup.com/poll/229805/br…

Very telling trend lines here. Democrats' significantly higher worry about healthcare 2001-2013 abated as Obamacare came on line. Now, over last year, Democrats' worry has returned, as Republicans' concern about healthcare drops to its lowest level yet. news.gallup.com/poll/231533/co…

Who supports what when it comes to the environment and energy? One surprising finding is the degree to which Republicans support controls on emissions and alternative fuel sources. Less than half of both groups favor government support for coal industry. news.gallup.com/poll/232007/am…

Party x education interaction in Trump job approval among whites. Political party identification swamps all else in predicting approval, but education matters, particularly among independents and Democrats. Gallup data, March 2018., non-Hispanic whites only.

Among non-Hispanic whites, Americans' educational attainment has essentially the opposite relationship to Obama job approval (2016) and Trump job approval (March, 2018).
