U.S. Satisfaction Low as Economic Concerns Remain High

A new Gallup poll finds just 21% of Americans say they are satisfied with the way things are going, and 78% are dissatisfied.

“Underscoring Americans’ recent concern about the economy, the percentage describing national economic conditions as ‘poor’ increased five percentage points to 42% in February, and the percentage saying conditions are getting worse ticked up three points to 70%. Both figures are tied for the highest they have been since the first months of the pandemic.”
