Poll: Americans Forced To Cut Back On Spending



At this point in this mid-term election year, I would not want to be a leader in the Democrat Party. Things are going to hell in a handbasket and much of the problems rests with them, especially His Fraudulency Joe Biden.

KRQE posted a poll from NewsNation in an article posted yesterday.

They wrote (some snippets):

CHICAGO (NewsNation) — Americans’ lives have fundamentally changed in response to rampant inflation, according to a new NewsNation/Decision Desk HQ poll released Monday. Across the country, consumers are cutting back on dining and entertainment but also essentials including groceries and gasoline.

Nearly half of those surveyed said they are worse off financially today than they were a year ago. By comparison, only 18% of respondents said they were better off.

Even the post-pandemic travel boom is in jeopardy as people reconsider what they can afford.

With Memorial Day just around the corner, nearly half of registered voters say they’ve changed summer vacation plans — some moving trips closer to home but most saying they have had to cancel plans altogether.

More than 70% of respondents said they have had to cut back on purchases over the last month.

Opinions on the underlying causes of inflation vary widely, with some people NewsNation spoke to Sunday blaming President Joe Biden and the federal government.

“I feel that Washington has failed us miserably and it doesn’t look like it’s going to stop,” said Earl Schwartzhoff of Minnesota.

Schwartzhoff said Biden should prioritize domestic oil production and restart construction on the Keystone XL pipeline in order to curb energy prices.

Remember the mantra during the Clinton years: "It's the economy, stupid!"
