Details on page 10 here: https://prod-i.a.dj.com/public/resources/documents/WSJNORCJuly2025.pdf https://prod-i.a.dj.com/public/resources/documents/WSJNORCJu... Including previous values: 25% July 2025 29% July 2024 28% March 2023 27% May 2022 Interesting other measurement: Neither agree nor disagree: 32% 24% 28% 27% So... not really much change over the past 3 years.

This is all unreproducible and non scientific internet adbased polling. It's worth dismissing.

  Its a report on how people feel. It measures how people say they feel. It's limited in usefulness but not worthless. Id just hazard against reading too much into it.

    It's a report on how some internet survey participants feel but it is in no way reproducible or representative of the U.S. population as a whole.

Yeah that was my take-away as well. It was like the least significant result in the report lol The difference in opinion on the economy was more significant. But it went the other direction (positive) so I guess they couldn't use that.

The article may be referring to page 14, actually. The question on page 14 is "Do you think the American Dream--that if you work hard you'll get ahead--still holds true, never held true, or once held true but does not anymore? And the results are (from 2023 to 2025): Still holds true: 36, 34, 31 (downward trend) Never held true: 18, 17, 23 (upward trend) Once held true but not anymore: 45, 49, 46 (mixed trend)
