I'm 50 years old. Zogby has shown me how much America has declined

[CatWoman]

steadily thru the years. Well, actually to be more precise, just the past 10 years.

I just completed a poll.

Look at some of the questions. Unfortunately, I had to give basically low and negative answers:

On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being the worst and 5 being the best , what is the state of honesty in America today?

Is the state of honesty in America today better or worse than it was when you were a child?

In general, do you anticipate the state of honesty in America will improve or decline in the next five years?

In general, do you have more or less trust in your government now than you did 5 years ago?

When you read an article in newspapers, how much confidence do you have that the reporting is accurate and fair? (On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being no confidence at all)

When you read an article on the Internet, how much confidence do you have that the reporting is accurate and fair? (On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being no confidence at all)

When you watch national news on broadcast television (ABC, CBS, NBC), how much confidence do you have that the reporting is accurate and fair? (On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being no confidence at all)

When you watch national news on cable television (CNN, FOX News, MSNBC), how much confidence do you have that the reporting is accurate and fair? (On a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 being no confidence at all)

4. WOW! I didn't get that one yet , but for some reason I always get

my email several hours up to a day or so later than some other DUers.

The "Honesty in America" ones are difficult to answer on a 1 to 5 scale. ie: Honesty in gov't, & media is very low, but I don't really believe there's any more dishonesty amoung the people who I know than there ever was.

6. Interesting

questions that do need to be asked. Seems to be focused on the media. Can we see the results of this poll on their website?

7. this link came up after I submitted the finished survey

I'm thinking one could go there to see the results after they get the required number of completed surveys.
