Tom Bilyeu Impact Theory
Half of Americans Think Hard Work Is Pointless. They’re Wrong.
What was said
"Literally is true from a poll. Yeah. Is an AP NORC American 250 poll. So it came out in June 8th of 2026."
Coleman on Impact Theory cites what he describes as an AP-NORC poll dated 8 June 2026, saying that when people who think the system is “broken” and those who think it “never worked” are combined, the share who doubt hard work pays off rises above 50%. He also cites trend figures for 2023–2025 and says the Wall Street Journal ran related polling.
