NEWS AND OPINION:
There’s some dismal news this Fourth of July: 85% of U.S. adults now say the country is on the wrong track, and 79% describe the economy as poor, according to a new survey from the Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research.
“The national dissatisfaction is bipartisan,” the poll analysis said. Noting that 92% of Republicans and 78% of Democrats agree the country is headed in the wrong direction,” AP said of its poll of 1,053 U.S. adults, conducted June 23-27.
It is time, perhaps, to revisit the wisdom of former President Ronald Reagan.
