The slight majority of Americans say they are worse off than four years ago, while their assessments of the U.S. economy are subpar and inflation remains a key concern.
For years ago huh? What an oddly specific time, most people would say 5 years since it’s half of 10. On a completely unrelated note with no implications whatsoever, isn’t this an election year?
Yes, a poll, usually dozens, happen at the end of every presidential term. It helps to understand how people have dealt with the administration and world events.
There were several at the end of Trump’s turn, that had much the same overall conclusion, that helped get Biden elected in hopes he’d result in a better outcome.
For most Americans, that hasnt happened.
As always, Dems are just solely hoping enough people hate Republicans that they win. So that in another four years this poll can be done again showing Dems aren’t good for anyone, they’re just not the worst, like choosing to smoke a pipe instead of cigarettes.
What stability? What boringness? The US is currently at war with a civilian population because it fought back against genocide; we’re about to invade Iran, wages haven’t caught up to inflation, long COVID still has no cure or federal disability recognition despite taking millions out of the job market, median rent is higher than the median wage can afford, union strength is at an all time low thanks specifically to the Biden admin, groceries are still ridiculously expensive despite the government proving in court companies are just price gouging, really nothing is boring, unless you’re rich
You’re right when your definition of “better” is a month where you only have to choose between a roof over your head and food instead of a roof over your head, medicine, and food.
What a disgusting response to the current state of the country and our decades long decline into serfdom.

Dunno what you mean. I’m doing way better than 4 years ago because of the general stability and boringness.

Only about half of that sounds true.
Unions : https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/21/business/big-paydays-union-members/index.html
Inflation is slowing: https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/10/economy/us-cpi-consumer-inflation-september/index.html
And you want the government to price fix groceries, which I agree with. But that’s unlikely to ever happen in America.
That’s only 900k union employees in a country with a population of 330 million
Inflation slowing doesn’t undo the damage caused by the previously record high inflation unless everyone got a raise to wipe out the price increases.
Oh right. I forgot that leftists don’t accept “better”. They only accept “perfect”.

And your recommended alternative to voting for Democrats is…?
Perhaps they’re comparing things to pre-COVID?
4 years ago was October 20th 2020. We were in covid by then.
Awh shit you’re right. I can’t math 😅
