March 8, 2023: Sixty-four percent (64%) of voters say that, generally speaking, the U.S. is a force for good in the world. A Scott Rasmussen national survey found that just 11% say the U.S. is generally a force for evil, and 24% are not sure.
The survey also found that only 10% say that China is generally a force for good in the world, while 58% say that it is generally a force for evil, and 33% are not sure.
Methodology
The survey of 1,000 registered voters was conducted online by Scott Rasmussen on February 23-24, 2023. Field work for the survey was conducted by RMG Research, Inc. Certain quotas were applied, and the sample was lightly weighted by geography, gender, age, race, education, internet usage, and political party to reasonably reflect the nation’s population of registered voters. Other variables were reviewed to ensure that the final sample is representative of that population.
The margin of sampling error for the full sample is +/- 3.1 percentage points.
Note: Neither Scott Rasmussen, ScottRasmussen.com, nor RMG Research, Inc. have any affiliation with Rasmussen Reports. While Scott Rasmussen founded that firm, he left nearly a decade ago and has had no involvement since that time.
