Is this a variance from their older counterparts? We all see America falling.

Young people's confidence in courts and government plummet to new lows, as views of their own freedom and access to housing crater.

Has anyone accurately been able to forecast anything into the future using Gallup data?

Did it accurately capture the rise of the "Maga movement?"

It's hard to take survey data like this seriously if people aren't actually stating what they actually believe vs signaling.

Younger people are upset at the cost of living and housing that are the direct results of decades on NIMBYISM coupled with politicians not doing what they say they will do and lobbying controlling industries and turning classes of people against one another.
