A new poll says that 70% of the people in the US think that “things are going badly in the US”. Cool. That number is up from 48% two years ago. But really, who cares? I mean, everyone I know thinks things are going shitty. It costs $89 to fill up your tank, $27 for milk and eggs and you just used your $300 ‘stimulus’ check to pay off a wee fraction of the interest on your maxed out credit card.
I’m far more curious about the 30% of people who said that they think the US is “on the right track” and that things are “going well”. As someone who, sadly, no longer believes in unicorns, I just really can’t believe this number. Even if (and that’s a big if unless your last name is Rockefeller, Bush or Google) things are going well for you personally- surely it’s apparent that they aren’t going well for other people. So where can a number this large (roughly 90 million Americans) come from?
Well, in a new poll conducted by the “part of my brain responsible for reasoning”, some answers have come to light about just who the 30% of Americans that still take their overpriced eggs sunny side-up are:
