18% of Americans Now Believed to be in Congress

A new Gallop Poll shows more than 80% of Americans holding an unfavorable view of Congress, while researchers now suspect that 18% of Americans are now members of the Legislative Branch.  "This is the only possible way to account for those surveyed that gave favorable reviews of the legislatures," said Barney Posnik, the lead research on the study.  "This conclusion has been reached by our team not only because they held favorable views of Congress, but also because they saw nothing dysfunctional about the body in any way."

The study findings also showed that, of those with a favorable view of Congress, 52% thought the job of Congress is to stop doing things, while 48% thought the job of Congress is to not do anything, because, as one of these respondents proclaimed: "It's all good!"
