Note that nearly every group has dropped from 2009 to 2013 in terms of their perceived contribution to society.
Lawyers are now down to 18% - a new low for them. Lawyers need a lot of help in this area, as we well know -- a lot of help!
Journalists suffered a huge loss (not that they were very high to begin with) from 38% to 28%. Maybe that's because the public now sees that the Dominant Media are hopelessly biased.
The only ones to witness any type of noticeable jump were business executives -- a three-point uptick from 21 to 24. Still, not an admirable figure.
And clergy have posted a downright dismal showing at 37%.
The five groups in positive territory: engineers, scientists, medical doctors, teachers and the military. But even all of those have lost ground since 2009.
