Views of National Economic Conditions
The public’s views of current economic conditions also remain negative. Just 9% say conditions are excellent or good, which is little changed from measures over the past two years. However, among those viewing the economy negatively – as only fair or poor – the proportion rating it poor has declined over the past few months while the percentage saying it is only fair has risen.
