Dear reader,

We're going big with a new Mother Jones Corruption Project, because we realized so many of today's stories come down to corruption: a system that is consistently manipulated by those with wealth and power. We aim to hire, build a team, and do time-intensive reporting to understand how we got here and how we might get out, publishing a major series of investigations in the summer of 2020. If you like how that sounds, please read the plan and join us with a tax-deductible donation so we can go all in.

"Corruption Isn’t Just Another Scandal. It’s the Rot Beneath All of Them": That's where we explain why Mother Jones is going big with a new Corruption Project. We aim to hire, build a team, and do time-intensive reporting to understand corruption as a pattern, not just isolated incidents. If you like how that sounds, help us go all in with a tax-deductible donation today.

I blew it. Sorry. It turns out that SurveyMonkey allows only 100 reponses to their free surveys. The cheapest option that would allow me to retrieve all the responses costs $408, and as much as I cherish my readers, that’s a little steep for a crummy little web survey joke. However, here are the results from the first 100 responses:

You guys are really law abiding! That makes me kind of sad, actually. Atrios may be wrong about driverless cars, but he wins this round about yellow lights. And next time I guess I’ll use Google Forms if I do any further scientific polling.
