Survey: Americans now less patriotic, less religious?

Americans are placing far less importance on patriotism, religion and other values, according to a new survey by the Wall Street Journal and the University of Chicago’s NORC.?

The poll surveyed 1,019 adult Americans from March 1 to 13 and compared the results to a 1998 poll. ?

The poll found 38 percent of respondents said patriotism was very important to them, down from 70 percent in 1998. And 39 percent said religion was very important, down from 62 percent in 1998.

Respondents under 30 placed much lower importance on those values than groups over 65. Money was cited as very important by 43 percent in the new survey, up from 31 percent in 1998, and it was the only priority that grew in importance.?

Jennifer Benz, vice-president of public affairs at NORC, said that views in the survey might have been colored by the downbeat economic outlook. “People are just sort of down on everything about the country, ” she said.?

The Wall Street Journal said major events in the US have“shaken and, in some ways, fractured the nation, ” among them the terrorist attack on Sept 11, 2001, the financial crisis of 2008, and the rise of former president Donald Trump.
