From 53% last year to 60% today

Rasmussen has a new survey out which suggest support for capitalism over socialism getting stronger among Americans nationwide. One demographic group still lagging for free enterprise are the under 30 crowd.

From Rasmussen:

Sixty percent (60%) of U.S. adults nationwide say that capitalism is better than socialism. A new Rasmussen Reports telephone survey finds that 18% disagree, while 21% are not sure.

Adults under 30 are closely divided on the question. While Republicans and unaffiliated voters overwhelmingly say that capitalism is better, just 43% of Democrats agree. Twenty-four percent (24%) of Democrats say socialism is better.

Last year at this time, among all adults, only 53% said capitalism was better.
