New York Times:
Americans are broadly concerned about inequality of wealth and income despite an economy that has improved by most measures, a sentiment that is already driving the 2016 presidential contest, according to a New York Times/CBS News poll.
The poll found that a strong majority say that wealth should be more evenly divided and that it is a problem that should be addressed urgently. Nearly six in 10 Americans said government should do more to reduce the gap between the rich and the poor, but they split sharply along partisan lines. Only one-third of Republicans supported a more active government role, versus eight in 10 of Democrats.
Polls and studies have also shown marked increases among Americans in wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, and gluttony.
Yup. But the greatest of these is envy. Because it works best to get Dems to the voting booth.
