Country divided on whether country is divided

That's quite divided! According to a survey commissioned by the Pew Research Center for the People & the Press, conducted October 6-10, 2005:

Some people think of American society as divided into two groups, the 'haves' and the 'have-nots,' while others think it's incorrect to think of America that way. Do you, yourself, think of America as divided into haves and have-nots, or don't you think of America that way?

  Yes, Divided Not Divided Unsure
10/6-10/05 48% 50% 2%
3/17-27/05 38% 59% 3%
