Indians and Pakistanis see each other’s country as the biggest threat to their national security, according to Pew Research’s 2012 polls in the respective countries.
When asked to choose the most serious threat to their country, 41% of Indians point to Pakistan.
Among Pakistanis, 59% pick India.
India and Pakistan have been divided by decades of political animosities, a nuclear arms race and several wars.
Nearly six-in-ten Americans say they would not want to ride in a driverless vehicle or use a robot caregiver for themselves or a family member, while roughly three-quarters would not want to apply for a job that used a computer program to evaluate and select applicants.
A sizable share of the public expresses reservations about personally using each of the technological concepts examined in the survey.
This pattern is different from that of Latinos in other parts of the country.
For example, in California, the state with the largest Hispanic population, 30% say they prefer “Hispanic” and 17% say they prefer the term “Latino.” In Florida, results are similar—31% prefer “Hispanic” and 17% prefer “Latino.” The pattern for New York and all other states is nearly the same.
The sales volume of ice cream in the UK decreased between 2009 and 2019, from around 425,000 thousand litres in 2009 to 300,000 thousand litres in 2019.
There was a decrease in sales volume of ice cream between 2009 and 2014, with some increase between 2014 and 2019.
Relatively few respondents in these 16 nations think Japan or the countries of the European Union are the globe’s leading economic power, although 25% of Germans say it is the EU countries.
In 2016, many people across the nations polled say the U.S. is the world’s leading economic power.
Australia stands out as the one nation polled where at least half (52%) say China is the top economy in the world, compared with 32% who say it is the U.S.
Americans and Europeans don’t always agree on questions about morality, especially on issues related to sexuality.
And while adultery is widely frowned upon in the EU – except, notably, in France – Americans are even more likely to say having an affair is morally unacceptable.
For instance, while just 30% in the U.S. think sex between unmarried adults is morally unacceptable, this is nonetheless significantly higher than what our 2013 poll found in Europe.
Department of defence has the highest proposed spending of 9900 followed second by Department of Homeland Security with the value of 2900.
There is a clear outlier which is the department of defence, which spends nearly the top amount shown on the table.
The largest amount of spending will be spent on the Department of defense, at nearly 10,000, million US dollars, with the next highest amount being just over 2,500 million US dollars spent on the Department of Homeland Security.
The remaining spends are all under 2000 and there is little differentiation.
Homeland security is the next highest at around 2500.
In 2008, nearly one in five internet users posted their thoughts, comments or questions about the campaign on a website, blog, social networking site or other online forum.
Voters are increasingly taking an active role in the political process by contributing their own thoughts or comments to the online debate.
There is also a geographical split on this issue: Half of urban (52%) and suburban (51%) residents are interested in driverless cars, but just 36% of rural residents say this is something they’d find appealing.
One quarter of Americans (26%) say they would get a brain implant to improve their memory or mental capacity if it were possible to do so, while 72% would not.
Of the three inventions we asked them about, Americans are most interested in riding in a driverless car: 48% would like to do this if given the opportunity, while 50% say this is something they would not want to do.
Other potential inventions appeal to a much smaller proportion of the public.
College graduates are particularly interested in giving driverless cars a try: 59% of them would do so, while 62% of those with a high school diploma or less would not.
Men express a greater willingness to do so than women (27% of men and 14% of women say they would give lab grown meat a try), and college graduates are around three times as likely as those who have not attended college to say this is something they’d attempt (30% vs. 11%).
College graduates are the main demographic group that stands out on this issue: 37% of them would be willing to get a performance-enhancing brain implant if given the chance.
Similarly, just one in five Americans (20%) would be willing to eat meat that was grown in a lab.
People traveling in families accounted for the majority of apprehensions in fiscal 2019, a big shift from the recent past.
There were 473,682 apprehensions of “family units” (defined as the number of individuals traveling in a family), representing 56% of apprehensions overall and more than four times the next-highest annual total of family member apprehensions on record (107,212 in fiscal 2018).
In all other recent years, apprehensions of individual adults far outnumbered those of family members or unaccompanied children.
Apprehensions of unaccompanied children ages 17 and younger also reached their highest level on record (76,020 in fiscal 2019, compared with a previous high of 68,541 in fiscal 2014).
Among the 58% who said they would not want to orbit the Earth aboard a spacecraft, equal shares said the main reason was that such a trip would be either “too expensive” (28% of those asked) or “too scary” (28%) or that their age or health wouldn’t allow it (28%).
Among the 42% of Americans who said they would be interested in traveling into space, the most common reason given (by 45% of those asked) was to “experience something unique.” Smaller shares of this group said they would want to be able to view the Earth from space (29%) or “learn more about the world” (20%).
It’s summertime, which means Americans are embarking on vacation trips to destinations near and far.
About four-in-ten Americans (42%) say they would definitely or probably be interested in orbiting the Earth in a spacecraft in the future, while roughly six-in-ten (58%) say they would not be interested.
But it’s not an excursion that appeals to everyone – more U.S. adults say they would not want to orbit the Earth than say they would, according to a new Pew Research Center survey.
One getaway in the “far” category would be a trip to space, something a host of private companies are trying to make possible.
After 2016 starts do decrease.
This seems to stabilise in 2015 and then starts to decline again.
From this graph i can observe that from 2010 to 2018 that the number of immigrants are decreasing over the years except for a peak inbetween 2010 and 2012.
In addition, from this information i can estimate that the number of immigrants to norway will decrease even more over time.
After the increase in 2011, the amount of immigrants has declined.
The lowest number of immigrants to Norway was in 2018.
The number of immigrants to Norway was the highest between 2010 and 2012.
The Mexican government has deported a record number of Central American children traveling without a guardian since last fall, which President Obama and other U.S. officials say has contributed to a significant drop in children apprehended at the U.S.-Mexico border.
The stepped up security was a result of a plan by Mexican officials to address the record surge in child migrants last year.
Overall, U.S. officials apprehended 12,509 unaccompanied children at the U.S.-Mexico border in the first five months of the fiscal year that began in October, down from 21,403 over the same time period a year ago.
(Most children apprehended during this fiscal year — 7,771 — came from the Central American countries of El Salvador, Guatemala and Honduras, with nearly all of the rest coming from Mexico.)
Mexico’s 3,819 deportations of unaccompanied minors from Central America during the first five months of the fiscal year represent a 56% increase over the same period a year earlier, according to a Pew Research Center analysis of Mexican and U.S. government data.
A 55% majority of U.S. adults said earlier this year that they view labor unions favorably, compared with a third who viewed them unfavorably.
When it comes to public opinion, Americans generally have a favorable view of unions and believe that the long-term decline in their membership has been more of a bad thing than a good thing.
In the same survey, around half of Americans (51%) said the reduction in union representation over the past 20 years has been mostly bad for working people, while around a third (35%) said it has been mostly good.
These views have fluctuated over the past two decades, but are now more positive than they were during the Great Recession.
The sector with lowest private equity investment was construction (excluding the 'other' category).
The sector with highest private equity investment as of 2016 was consumer goods and services at nearly EUR1,400,000,000.
There is a very wide range in private equity investment in Italy by sector, from three sectors apparently under EUR100,000,000 up to consumer goods and services at nearly EUR1,400,000,000.
Investment is highest in consumer goods and services, followed by energy and environment.
Half of Americans say they think China will have less influence in world affairs after the coronavirus outbreak than it did before – more than twice as many as expect its influence to grow (17%) following the crisis (31% expect no real change).
In comparison, a plurality of Americans expect their own country’s influence to remain largely unchanged (41%), while roughly three-in-ten each say U.S. influence will increase (29%) or decrease (29%).
News about Iran more generally accounted for 4% of coverage.
Following the December death of Kim Jong-il, his son, Kim Jong-un took control of the country’s government.
Nearly a quarter (23%) say they followed this news very closely.
News about the changes in North Korea accounted for less than 1% of coverage last week.
Republicans are more likely to say they followed these developments very closely than are Democrats (29% vs. 19%); 23% of independents say this as well.
News about the leadership changes in North Korea attracted modest attention and little coverage last week.
News about the situation in North Korea was the top story last week for 5%, while 17% say they followed the situation there very closely.
Tension between the U.S. and Iran over shipping in the Persian Gulf was the top story for 8%.
Another 5% say their top story was news about the arsonist in Los Angeles who apparently set fire to more than 50 automobiles; 13% say they followed this news very closely.
News about the fires and the man arrested by police as the suspected arsonist accounted for 3% of coverage.
All 20 countries listed have a life expectancy of at least 80 years.
The share of voters saying they’ve been feeling frustrated has risen 8 percentage points since earlier in the summer (from 49% to 57%).
Far more say they have been feeling frustrated (57%), disgusted (55%) or scared (43%) than say they are interested (31%), optimistic (15%) or excited (just 10%).
Yet only 9% of voters say they feel indifferent about the campaign.
Negative feelings about the campaign rose over the summer.
Trump and Clinton supporters express similar levels of frustration (55% and 53%, respectively) and differ little in their feelings of disgust (53% vs. 48%) or fear (46% vs. 41%).
Similarly, a larger share now say they are disgusted (45% then, 55% now), while slightly more now say they are scared than said this two months ago (37% then, 43% now).
There has been little change in the share expressing positive feelings about the campaign over the course of the summer.
As previous Pew Research Center surveys have found, voters have very negative feelings about the presidential campaign.
The following three brands are the ones used by the most construction firm respondents; Delta, Kohler and Moen.
These three are significantly higher than the other brands which were included in the survey in 2018.
But that finding masked a partisan divide: Nearly seven-in-ten Republicans (69%), but only 47% of Democrats, supported using force to aid a NATO ally attacked by Russia.
At least half of Germans, French and Italians said their countries should not use military force to defend a NATO ally if attacked by Russia.
During the confrontation with Russia over Ukraine last year, a majority of Americans (56%) were willing to fulfill this security commitment if Russia got into a serious military conflict with a NATO ally.
When it came specifically to aiding Ukraine, half or fewer in every NATO country surveyed supported the idea of the alliance sending arms to the Ukrainians.
Last year’s survey found that the U.S. and Canada were the only countries in which more than half of respondents backed using military force if Russia got into a serious conflict with a NATO ally.
The NATO alliance commits each member to come to the collective defense of a member if it is attacked.
However, by 2004, following the start of the Iraq War in 2003, views of the UN among Republicans had plummeted below 50% and have not recovered, while attitudes among Democrats dropped somewhat – particularly in 2006 and 2007 – but rose through the Obama era.
There was a dip in favorability in the late ’90s (possibly on account of the troubled UN peacekeeping mission to Bosnia and Herzegovina), but overall views of the international organization were positive among both Democrats and Republicans through 2001, before 9/11.
Nearly equal numbers of Democrats (73%) and Republicans (68%) shared a positive view of the UN.
Consequently, the current U.S. partisan divide on favorable views of the UN (a 37-percentage-point difference between Democrats and Republicans) is the largest we have measured.
When this question was first posed in 1990, seven-in-ten Americans viewed the UN favorably and the partisan divide was minimal.
Newsroom spending at the three major financial networks was $725 million, a 3% change.
Total newsroom spending by the three channels combined increased by 5% in 2018 to a total of $2.4 billion, according to estimates by Kagan.
A majority of U.S. adults (64%) say social media have a mostly negative effect on the way things are going in the country today, with Republicans being more likely than Democrats to express that view, according to a July 2020 survey.
The Americans who see a negative effect from social media point to factors including misinformation and the hate and harassment they see on these platforms.
Americans ages 65 and older are about three times as likely as adults under 30 to say they’re following the news about the candidates very closely (39% vs. 12%).
And white adults (26%) are more likely than black and Hispanic Americans to say this (17% and 16%, respectively).
Currently 55% of Millennials (those now ages 18-34) approve of his job performance, as do half of Generation Xers (those 35 to 50).
Obama’s approval ratings continue to differ by generation, with younger generations more likely to view his job performance positively.
By comparison, 44% of Baby Boomers (51 to 69 year olds) approve of Obama, along with just 37% of those in the Silent Generation (currently ages 70 to 87).
but from what i can see 2015 saw the least amount tourists.
personal finances doesnt seem to be so much of a concern after 2012/2013 for not visiting the USA.
this is a tough one because i need reasons as to why people have not been traveling as much.
But in Europe, concerns about inequality trump all other dangers and the gap between the rich and the poor is increasingly considered the world’s top problem by people living in advanced economies, including the United States.
With growing conflicts engulfing the Middle East, people in the region name religious and ethnic hatred most frequently as the greatest threat to the world.
Around a quarter of Americans say the growing gap between the rich and the poor (27%) is the greatest threat to the world today, with 24% saying this about religious and ethnic hatred and 23% expressing concern about the spread of nuclear weapons.
Elsewhere, Asians and Latin Americans are somewhat divided about the world’s greatest danger, but pollution and environmental problems as well as the spread of nuclear weapons are high on their list of threats.
Moreover, publics across the globe see the threat of religious and ethnic violence as a growing threat to the world’s future.
African countries see AIDS and other infectious diseases as the most pressing issue in the world today.
Fewer say pollution and other environmental problems (15%) or AIDS and other infectious diseases (7%) are the world’s top problems.
Between 1990 and 2015, sub-Saharan Africa decreased the number of deaths among children under 5 by 52%.
And while maternal deaths dropped by 49% since 1990, sub-Saharan Africa still has a maternal mortality rate more than twice that of any other region (510 per 100,000 live births in sub-Saharan Africa compared with 190 in Southern Asia, the next-highest).
Health care has also remained a key challenge in sub-Saharan Africa.
Even so, the region continues to have the highest under-5 mortality rate, with 86 deaths per 1,000 live births.
On this issue, sub-Saharan Africa lags far behind other areas of the world on key indicators such as the mortality rates for children under 5 and for mothers.
Roughly eight-in-ten (median of 82%) across the nine countries surveyed say poor-quality health care is a very big problem in their nation.
This bar chart forecasts that there will be an increase in the consumption of whole milk powder.
The rate of increase in consumption is very slow/steady with the vales of 310 (1000 tonnes) in 2015 and 350(1000 tonnes) in 2028 showing a gradual increase suggesting a slight increase in demand.
Within the past month, it reached a peak of 74% in polling the day U.S. troops successfully captured Baghdad.
The president’s current job approval rating of 65% is ten-points higher than in mid-March, before the start of military action in Iraq.
In July, roughly half of the public said they thought increased tariffs would be bad for the U.S. Today, a similar share also says this (53%).
Overall, the public continues to say that increased tariffs between the U.S. and its trading partners – first imposed by the Trump administration earlier this year – will be bad for the country.
Partisans continue to hold opposing views on this policy; 70% of Republicans say they think tariffs will be good for the U.S. Conversely, nearly eight-in-ten Democrats (79%) say they will be bad for the U.S.
All other shows have less than 50mil followers aside from Spongebob which barely breaks through.
The Simpsons has more than double the fans Futurama has (61mil to 26 mil).
The Simpsons has the highest number of facebook fans while Futurama has the lowest.
Sessions would join at least 39 other attorneys general who had been elected to some position other than to a prosecutorial job.
Having served as an assistant U.S. attorney, U.S. attorney and state attorney general in Alabama, Sessions would join at least 44 others with prior prosecutorial experience at any level of government, from local district attorneys to federal prosecutors.
The last U.S. senator to become attorney general was John Ashcroft of Missouri in 2001.
Having served in the U.S. Army Reserve from 1973 to 1986, Sessions would join at least 25 attorneys general with military experience.
(We also excluded judicial positions filled through elections.)
(We excluded jobs at the Justice Department’s Washington headquarters from our definition of “prosecutorial experience.” Robert F. Kennedy, for example, served as an attorney in the department’s Criminal Division before becoming attorney general in 1961, but that experience is not counted as prosecutorial.)
Exposure to false or incorrect information is a key concern for people in 11 emerging economies, according to a recent Pew Research Center survey.
Many social media users report being regularly exposed to misinformation when using the platforms.
In most countries surveyed, more than a quarter of social media and messaging app users say they frequently encounter this sort of content, and majorities in 10 of the 11 countries say they see it at least occasionally.
Until recently, Facebook had dominated the social media landscape among America’s youth – but it is no longer the most popular online platform among teens, according to a new Pew Research Center survey.
Today, roughly half (51%) of U.S. teens ages 13 to 17 say they use Facebook, notably lower than the shares who use YouTube, Instagram or Snapchat.
Slight increases in industry in 2011, 2015 and 2017.
An overall decrease is shown over the time in Industry.
As trust in the federal government has declined since the start of the year, anger has risen.
Currently, 30% say they are angry at the government, up 11 points since January.
The share saying they are basically content with government has fallen by eight points, while frustration has held about steady.
This bar diagram shows that the outflow of Spanish people increased from 2010 to 2015, then decreased slowly back to 2019.
Since 2015, the number has declined over time to reach under 40,000 in 2019.
With 2015 being the highest amount of outflow within those years.
The number of people leaving or returning to Spain increased steadily from 40,000 in 2010 to over 90,000 in 2015.
Declining steadily since then to under 80,000 in 2018.
The Bar chart began in 2010, showing an outflow of around 40,000 Spaniards annually, this peaked in 2015 at over 90,000.
2014 had by far the largest number of employees.
2013 the number of employees trebled.
The number of employees has doubled between 2005-2019.
2010 had the lowest number of employees.
2015 saw the biggest drop in the number of employees.
In particular, corruption – which has been a major focus of President Xi Jinping – remains a serious concern.
However, they also believe their country is facing a variety of challenges.
Fully 84% say corrupt officials are a big problem, and 44% think they are a very big problem.
Waste generation increases approx +50 every 10 years.
From the 1960 you can tell by the chart that the waste generated has gone up each year it has trebled in the years to make it look like each year will be going up.
The tour which had the fewest number of tickets sold was George-strait with less than 200,000 sold.
The tour which had the most number of sales of over 800,000 tickets in 2020 was Trans-Siberian Orchestra.
The majority of music tours had less than 200,000 tickets sold.
More broadly, the public places technology companies somewhere in the middle of the pack in terms of their overall power in the economy relative to other industries and commercial entities.
Larger shares of the public feel that pharmaceutical companies, advertisers, or banks and other financial institutions have too much power and influence today, while smaller shares think this is true of labor unions, small businesses or the farming and agriculture industry.
Asked about the relative clout of eight different groups or entities, just over half the public (55%) says technology companies have too much power and influence, similar to the share (57%) that thinks the energy industry has an outsize influence on the economy today.
