NEW CATO SURVEY: Nearly a third of Gen Z support the government installing surveillance cameras in every household  to prevent crime and abuse.

Opposition to Orwelian-government monitoring has been assumed to be both overwhelming and obvious. But is it?

However only 14% of Americans nationally support in-home government surveillance cameras, while 75% oppose.

But that means that young Americans are TWICE as likely to support government monitoring people in their homes. Image
We asked this question as part of the Cato 2023 CBDC National Survey to investigate if support for central bank digital currencies correlates with in-home government surveillance…it does.

A majority–53%–of CBDC supporters also support government in-home surveillance cameras Image

THREAD: A new @CatoInstitute national survey seeks to explore and examine why Americans support or oppose a more open immigration regime. cato.org/survey-reports… #CatoPolls #CatoImmigration
Support for more immigration has tripled from the mid‐1990s when about 10% of the public supported more immigration and two‐thirds wanted less. Today 29% of Americans want more, 38% want to maintain current levels, and 33% want less. #CatoPolls
Democrats’ views largely account for this shift. Starting around 2008–2010, Democratic support for more immigration rose from about 20% to 47% today. #CatoPolls
