Many respondents believe the US economy is already in dire straits, the poll found
More than four in 10 Americans believe the country is heading toward a complete economic meltdown within the next decade, according to a new poll.
The survey, released by YouGov on Wednesday, shows Americans are more worried about the economy than potential threats to the democratic system or the prospect of civil war.
42% of respondents said it is very or somewhat likely that there will be “a total economic collapse” in the next 10 years, while a smaller share, 38%, described this outcome as unlikely.
Financial anxiety ran much higher among Democrats, 53% of whom feared an economic breakdown, compared with just 28% of Republicans.
Well, if it’s inevitable then yeah probably better to get it over with asap, like yeah ideally trump gets a heart attack and we prosecute all the child rapists in Washington and restore the global order and resume the march of progress in solidarity. But idk i think trump dies and they just keep going with this reactionary bs until we get WW3 and US has to surrender to the allies.
Better for that to happen via economic crisis now than full blown military ww3 crisis in a couple years.
