PROGRESSIVE VIEWS As recently cited by economist Jared Bernstein in his Substack, a Wall Street Journal (WSJ) poll about which issues Americans would like Congress to pass laws on indicates the top issues with voters across the board mainly concern the cost of living.

What's thought-provoking, however, is that most of the specific policies about which the WSJ asked are Democratic policies - not socialist or communist strategies, despite what Republicans in these parts incessantly try to assert in this newspaper.

Most of the policies in the WSJ poll were supported by significant majorities of voters, to include Republicans and independents.
