today's children will be better off than their parents (Rasmussen

the file ChildOutlook. A response of Yes indicates that the adult
surveyed did think today's children will be better off than their
parents. A response of No indicates that the adult surveyed did not
think today's children will be better off than their parents. A
response of Not Sure was given by 23% of the adults being
surveyed.
