Public’s Ratings Of The U.S. Economy Remain Negative

Read the full Gallup Poll

Americans’ assessments of the U.S. economy continue to be pessimistic, according to a new Gallup Poll.

Roughly one in five Americans say economic conditions in this country are getting better, a slight improvement since last month, but still among the most negative Gallup has measured since 1992.
