Following the Wuhan virus pandemic, the majority of Americans believe it’s more important to investigate health issues than blindly trusting “experts.” Unsurprisingly, however, Democrats trust self-styled medical experts per a Rasmussen poll.
In this poll, 35% of American voters believe it’s safe to trust advice from coming from medical experts, whereas 58% indicated it’s important for people to do their own research.
When it came to the Wuhan virus pandemic, 45% believe the majority of the experts were essentially right, while 41% believe most experts were basically wrong, and 14% are unsure.
As far as partisan differences go, 73% of Democrat voters believe the majority of experts were right about the Wuhan virus pandemic. By contrast, this view is shared by only 24% of Republican voters and 37% of independent voters. 65% of Republican voters, 16% of Democrat voters, and 44% of independent voters believe most experts were wrong about the Wuhan virus.
On questions connected to health, 13% of voters trust experts a lot who give advice on TV and other media, whereas 28% of voters have some degree of trust in media experts. By contrast, 34% of voters indicated that they don’t have very much trust in health advice from media experts, and 19% don’t have trust in these experts at all.
63% of Democrat voters have at least some degree of trust in experts who dole out health advice in the media. On the other hand, 28% of Republican voters, and 34% of the independent voters.
In a similar vein, when it comes to their own healthcare decisions, 52% of Democrat voters believe it’s safe to trust advice from experts, whereas only 22% of Republican voters, and 30% of independent voters are in agreement. 73% of Republican voters, 43% of Republican voters, and 60% of the independent voters stated that it’s important for people to do their own research about healthcare decisions.
When it comes to race, 39% of white voters, 51% of black voters, and 41% of non-black minorities indicated some degree of trust in media experts who provide health advice.
Americans making over $100,000 annually trust expert advice on healthcare more than individuals of lower income status.
It’s good to see that Americans are growing more distrustful of the expert class, which is really a bunch of pseudo-experts that have no idea what they’re talking about. In fact, these people just serve as shills for a ruling class that wants to control every facet of people’s lives.
For the sake of maintaining our freedoms, these experts must be laughed out of the venue and rendered paupers.
