Answer the poll

Where Netherlands sits on economic

What is measured about Netherlands on this axis. These are facts about the country, not what its people think about them — that is the part of this page waiting on a sample.

The questions that bear on privatization

Asked as a forced choice between two written positions, in randomised order, with the sides flipped for half of respondents.

A · Water, power and trains work better when private firms compete to run them.
B · Water, power and trains should be owned by the public, not run for profit.
World, unweighted: 50% A · 0% neither · 50% B · n = 2
🇳🇱 n=0
of 100

A national figure appears only once that nation clears 100 responses on the question. The world column is a raw count of every answer received and is not post-stratified — it is shown because withholding it would say less, not more.
