Chart: A look at America’s view of national institutions and their impact

Democrats love labor unions, colleges and universities and the national news media. Republicans love churches…and that’s actually about it.

The Pew Research Center released new data that look at America’s views of national institutions and their impact on society. It’s an interesting take for two reasons: the partisan divide and the growing opposition to these institutions.

Here is the chart:

Let’s be honest: labor unions have metastasized into thuggish mobs, the education system has morphed into Marxist indoctrination (if it ends in Studies you know you won’t get an education) and banks are crony institutions. You already know what media outlets and churches are like.

It’s a good thing, though, that many Americans are waking up to these groups’ negative nature. Has a national awakening commenced?
