Most Americans 'Wrong Track' on Economy, Except for War Profiteers
Nearly two-thirds of Americans believe the U.S. is on the 'wrong track' regarding the economy and more, according to Axios reporting on a new PRRI poll. This widespread dissatisfaction is attributed to 'Trump's impact' on various issues. However, the poll and subsequent analysis conveniently sidestep the booming defense sector, whose stock prices ( LMT , RTX , GD ) only seem to trend upward with
every new international conflict the U.S. involves itself in, or funds abroad. Apparently, 'wrong track' doesn't apply to everyone. It makes one wonder: if public sentiment is so negative, yet military aid packages continue to flow—like the recent HR 815 , sending billions to Israel—whose 'track' are we actually on? The track of the average American, or the track of those profiting handsomely from
perpetual global instability? Axios calls it the nation's 'sour mood,' we call it a symptom of selective economic blindness.
