Yellen on Poor Polls on Economy: ‘Most Americans Feel Good About Their Own Economic Situation
Breitbart ^ | 08/14/2023 | Ian hatchett

Posted on 08/14/2023 6:39:30 PM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “OutFront,” Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen responded to poor polling numbers on the economy and President Joe Biden’s handling of the economy by stating that people tell pollsters they’re happy about their own financial situation and “So, they seem to perceive the economy as a whole as doing less well than they are personally. But most Americans feel good about their own economic situation.”

Host Erin Burnett asked, “The latest CNN poll, Secretary Yellen, shows that 75% of Americans believe the economy is in poor condition, and maybe that’s because, again, even though inflation rates have come down, they are still paying more. 63% of people in this poll disapprove of how President Biden is handling the economy. What do you say, Secretary Yellen, to the clear majority of Americans who simply do not believe that the administration is helping them?”

Say what?

Americans have not felt good about their own economic situation for the past 20 years. Probably longer.

You know what? I’m doing just fine. But it’s not about me. It’s about the country and the future of my children and grandchildren. And right now things don’t look really good at all for their future.

Out of touch (as Hall and Oates would say).

I’m certain like Mitch, Schumer, AOC and others, she only knows rich people and goes to cocktail parties and yacht trips with multimillionaires. Sees the miserable lower classes on their knees outside in the driveway polishing the chrome wheels of the limos.

On the 49 state election victory of Richard Nixon in 1972:
Dec. 28, 1972, New York Times, critic Pauline Kael said:

“I only know one person who voted for Nixon. Where they are I don’t know. They’re outside my ken. But sometimes when I’m in a theater I can feel them.”

She must be talking about the ‘public servants’ living in mansions in the wealthiest counties in the United States - those clustered around DC. Those folks steal from the people and they’re doing just fine.
