Americans’ positive views of the United States economy remains well below half, but have ticked up slightly over the past week, according to a new CBS poll.

The new poll found that 33 percent of Americans think the condition of the economy is good, an increase from last week’s number of 28 percent. As the nation’s debt limit remains in limbo, more than half of Americans say that Congress should not raise the debt ceiling while 45 percent saying that it should.

But when presented with the prospect of a default, 67 percent said it should raise the debt limit. Most Americans also think that both Republicans and President Biden should compromise on the debt ceiling negotiations, according to the poll.

Who could argue with a puppet so deranged that when he delivers the SOTUS he will claim he ordered the shootdown of a Chinese spy balloon in order to reduce inflation?

SeeBS “Polls” ALWAYS have “up ticks” when RATS are involved. Probably just a coincidence.

“28 to 33 is a uptick?? 🙄”

A rise of 17.86% is a nice uptick yes. People rate the economy by how THEY are doing. More people think things are improving lately. Overall, they are still a minority, but the minority is growing. I’m shocked at how well I’m doing, but I’m not part of the work force, I’m “retired” as they call it.

Fake news struggling to save the Demon Rat party.

if there is a genuine uptick, it is because Republicans took the House.

No, it couldn’t. Nobody cares what the news or the govt says when it comes to money. People rate the economy in one way, how they themselves are doing, period. They look in their wallets and at their bank accounts, at their pay, or their profits. People saying the economy is better are simply saying THEY are doing better, that’s all.

I could throw a cue ball 100 times in a crowd here and hit someone 9 of 10 times who would disagree (and would enjoy it 90% of the time).
