State of Disunion
Most Americans aren’t impressed.
Just in time for last night’s State of the Union address, a new NBC News/Wall Street Journal poll found that the “union” isn’t so unified. A whopping 71% of Americans aren’t satisfied with the economy, though this isn’t surprising given the sorry state of Obama’s “recovery.” Only 31% think the country is better off than when Obama took office in 2009, and just 28% think we’re headed in the right direction. It’s going to take a lot more than a teleprompted speech to fix all of that.
