Aug. 13 (UPI) -- For the first time in a decade, Democrats have a more positive image of socialism than they do of capitalism, according to a Gallup poll released Monday.
While their view of socialism has not changed materially, Democrats' view of capitalism fell substantially from a 2016 poll, when 56 percent indicated a positive view of capitalism, to 47 percent in 2018. Republicans maintain a more confident view of capitalism, with 71 percent offering positive views and 16 percent having a positive view of socialism. Those figures have changed little since 2010.
