Huge Majority Say Iran War Is Driving Up Prices

A new Deseret News/Hinckley Institute of Politics poll finds that nearly 4 in 5 Americans say the Iran War is driving up the cost of everything. 

The numbers are striking:

• 79% of national respondents say they are at least “somewhat concerned” about the Iran War’s impact on the U.S. economy, with a full 50% saying they are “very concerned.”
• A staggering 79% of Americans nationally report that the cost of daily goods has increased “somewhat” or “a great deal” since the war began.
• Meanwhile, only 7% of national respondents say they are paying lower prices, a figure so small it underscores just how universal the economic pain has become.
• A mere 15% of national respondents said they were “not too concerned” or “not at all concerned” about the war’s economic impact, meaning concern dwarfs indifference by a ratio of more than 5 to 1.
