A Pew survey of over 30,000 adults in 25 countries found 53% of U.S. adults rate their fellow citizens' morality as bad, influenced partly by partisan politics.
- 53% of Americans described the morality and ethics of their fellow citizens as bad, the highest among 25 countries surveyed by Pew Research Center.

- Pew noted it had not asked this specific question before, so it could not determine whether this was a long-term pattern or a newer shift in American views.
