US: Going in the right direction
  • Just 13% of Likely U.S. Voters now say the country is heading in the right direction, according to a new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey for the week ending October 13. That's down from 17% the week before and the lowest finding since the week of October 20-26, 2008, when George W. Bush was still president.

    Eighty percent (80%) of voters now think the country is heading down the wrong track, up 17 points from two weeks ago and the highest level of pessimism since the week of August 6-11, 2011. From January 2009 until October 2012, belief that the country was on the wrong track ranged from 55% to 80%, but it tracked in the low 50s from just before Election Day until early December.

  • The 13% that think everything's fine must be living on a different planet from the rest of us.

    In fact, they are. As it is enough to see income dynamics of top 10% :-)

  • The old economy is gone. It's now a world economy. Get over it, understand it, and decide how you want to be a part of it.

    Nope, it is not just "world economy". It is declining world economy that soon will break into parts.

    You mean with that?

  • very soon indeed, back to basics.

  • Hopefully better and better cameras will keep coming out even as the world goes all Mad Max on us, so we can document it in style.
