Washington, May 6 (RHC)-- Most U.S. citizens say it would be better if the United States just dealt with its own problems and let other nations deal with their own problems as best they can, according to a new poll from the Pew Research Center.

The survey, conducted April 12 to 19 among 2,008 US adults, 57 percent of Americans want the US to deal with its own problems.  Just 37 percent say the U.S. should help other countries deal with their problems.  And 41 percent of Americans say the U.S. is too involved around the world.

These are among the main findings of America’s Place in the World, a survey of foreign policy attitudes conducted periodically by Pew Research Center, an American think tank based in Washington, DC.

The poll also found that 49 percent of Americans say U.S. involvement in the global economy is a bad thing because it lowers wages and costs jobs.  While Americans remain skeptical of US international involvement, many also view the United States as a less powerful and important world power than it was a decade ago.
