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.

Republicans have done a poor job of discussing the debt limit and the out of control spending.

Rs need to personalize the spending. Currently Biden is dispersing the ARA money to Welfare Queens aka College Educated woke. They are the 3% increase in Biden’s approval.

Jan 2020 civilian employment 164 million
Jan 2023 civilian employment 165 million
An increase of 1 million.
How many per year. How many per month?

How many new population in 2 years?
How many new immigrants in 2 years?
What about non-civilian employment?
When the ARA hires government employees is that the same as workers?
