We explore several explanations for this finding, and show that it is consistent with the argument that it is easier for the rich to buy themselves out of service when income inequality is high. 4/4

We find that 1. High country-level income inequality is associated w/ low willingness to fight for one's country; 2. The rich are less willing to fight than the poor when income inequality is high; 3. No difference between the rich and the poor when inequality is low 2/4

What a great idea! Certainly! I'll ask the Archive to get onto this. BTW, it a brilliant survey: new batteries on online participation, inequality, corruption, trust, etc etc., new countries, and new national metadata to make it more user-friendly.

For those who still need convincing of the multidimensional pattern of party competition - here is the position of VOTERS in Western democracies. The GOP one of the most socially conservative - and US Dems very centrist. As @NormOrnstein has argued. @ValuesStudies
