81% of the American Public Think that the Economy Sucks

So says a CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey.

This is unsurprising, and it may explain why efforts like Clinton's, Blair/Brown's, and Obama's to dismantle the New Deal/Social Democrat structure, because they believe, even more than Republicans, that "Reagan changed everything," are driving people back into the arms of an increasingly delusional Republican Party, because a bad something always wins over a better nothing.

This is a foreseeable consequence of the "3^rd Way."
