Americans continue to hold a gloomy assessment of the economy’s chances for improvement in both the short- and long-term, according to Rasmussen. Have you been to the grocery store lately? It's unbelievable. Landlords are raising rents and money goes no where. Those in the Service business are raising rates and service, well what is that? You can't even get a city employee to return a telephone call.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 25% of American Adults believe the U.S. economy will be stronger a year from now. That’s virtually unchanged from 24% in March, the lowest level of optimism recorded in regular tracking since early January 2009 following the Wall Street meltdown. This finding has generally run in the mid-30s to low 40s for most of the last five-and-a-half years.
Timing is everything and for some reason, this commission continues to hit you over the head with a jackhammer and stomp on you by wanting to grab your cash even though most Americans know that the economy sucks and their dollar buys little. The only way you can tell them how you feel and get the message to sink in is to vote on August 26. Tell them NO way.
Vote against bonds.
