The latest Gallup poll shows the American Congress in a free
fall to becoming the most unpopular entity in the universe. According to the
poll, only 7 percent of those questioned had “a great deal” or “quite a bit” of
confidence in Congress. Younger people might be saying, “Hey, Congress has
always sucked,” which, from a performance standpoint might be true, but from
the perspective of public opinion, it is at an all-time low. In 1973, a
whopping 42 percent of the public had a great deal of confidence in Congress,
but it’s been all downhill since then.
To put this in perspective, here are fifteen things that are
more popular than Congress.
- Jorts
- Zombies
- Satan
- Colonoscopies
- Adam Sandler
- Clowns
- Paper cuts
- Lutefisk
- Dirt
- Tax audits
- NSA
- The Last Airbender
- Root canal
- Kim Jong Un
- Spam
