Economy Getting Better According To Some Americans

4/26/09

« Prev | Next »

Tags: Economy

From Rasmussen Reports (conducted: 4/22-24/09)

25% say the economy is getting better
51% say it is getting worse
58% say the economy is already poor, while 9% say it is excellent or good

» Commentary by Kris Lazaro (registered Democrat)

The economy is starting to get back on track, as more and more Americans are believing the aforementioned hypothesis. In a recent Rasmussen poll Americans were asked about what they thought about the economy. Surprisingly those who thought the economy was getting better was increasing, at a clip of 25%. Those who thought the economy was getting worse checks in at 51%.

The funny thing about the economy is that it is partially based on perception. Although there are clear indicators of the health of the economy, part of it is based on consumer confidence. As more and more people feel it is safe to invest and spend, the economy will once again start rolling.

This poll is a welcome sign of Americans' economic anxiety. We will get through this, but in the meantime we all must remain positive and continue to drive this economy forward.
