Here's a recap of last night’s @marketplace show with @kairyssdal featuring Edison Research President, Larry Rosin:
-In one word, Americans are feeling anxious about the economy.
-Increased anxiety is due to a number of factors, including Americans’ increased fear of losing their job in the next 12 months and their overall feeling of financial security.
-Polls show things aren't so bad on a larger economic scale, but that people are concerned about their personal financial situation and many are living on the financial edge.
-Americans are not just anxious, they’re also suspicious: 71% of those who participated in the poll believe the economy is rigged to favor some Americans over others.
-Regarding Trade: A strong majority of Americans believe trade deals made by the U.S. government have hurt manufacturing jobs, and hurt them individually
-Both sides of the political aisle agree that trade has hurt them.
The next wave of the #economicanxiety poll will be conducted shortly before the 2016 General Election.
