The 80th CNT/Sensus poll reports that 78.8% of the 2,000 people it interviewed in February said that violence is on the rise in Brazil. That is slightly less than the 82.7% who said the same thing in the 79th poll in November 2005.
At the other end of the spectrum, 6.9% in the February poll said violence had diminished, compared to 4.3% in the November poll. The poll also asked about the interviewee's perception of poverty in Brazil: 57.1% said it was getting worse, 14.1% said it was improving. As for healthcare, 39.9% said it was better, and 25.8% said it was getting worse. With regard to education, 37.7% said it was getting better, and 26% said it was worse. As for the general Satisfaction Index, it rose 1.65 points from 50.05 in November 2005, to 51.7 in February.
