Majority of Americans don’t remember struggling to find toilet paper.
majority of americans are still trying to climb out of the hole from 4-8 years ago.
Not being able to buy toilet paper because the store is out of it is different from not being able to buy it because it’s too expensive
Toilet paper is the least of most Americans worries. It’s literally an extreme luxury item.
You’re either a troll or not American. Or both.
Nope, anyone spending multi hundreds of dollars a year on disposable ass cleaning methods is rich, stupid, or both. Bidets have been less than a hundred dollars for the last four decades, and could be found for less than twenty during the “shortage”
Toilet paper is the domain of the rich, the civilized world uses bidets.
For years ago huh? What an oddly specific time, most people would say 5 years since it’s half of 10. On a completely unrelated note with no implications whatsoever, isn’t this an election year?
Yes, a poll, usually dozens, happen at the end of every presidential term. It helps to understand how people have dealt with the administration and world events. There were several at the end of Trump’s turn, that had much the same overall conclusion, that helped get Biden elected in hopes he’d result in a better outcome.
For most Americans, that hasnt happened.
As always, Dems are just solely hoping enough people hate Republicans that they win. So that in another four years this poll can be done again showing Dems aren’t good for anyone, they’re just not the worst, like choosing to smoke a pipe instead of cigarettes.
Dunno what you mean. I’m doing way better than 4 years ago because of the general stability and boringness.
What stability? What boringness? The US is currently at war with a civilian population because it fought back against genocide; we’re about to invade Iran, wages haven’t caught up to inflation, long COVID still has no cure or federal disability recognition despite taking millions out of the job market, median rent is higher than the median wage can afford, union strength is at an all time low thanks specifically to the Biden admin, groceries are still ridiculously expensive despite the government proving in court companies are just price gouging, really nothing is boring, unless you’re rich
Only about half of that sounds true.
Unions : https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/21/business/big-paydays-union-members/index.html
Inflation is slowing: https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/10/economy/us-cpi-consumer-inflation-september/index.html
And you want the government to price fix groceries, which I agree with. But that’s unlikely to ever happen in America.
That’s only 900k union employees in a country with a population of 330 million
Inflation slowing doesn’t undo the damage caused by the previously record high inflation unless everyone got a raise to wipe out the price increases.
Oh right. I forgot that leftists don’t accept “better”. They only accept “perfect”.
You’re right when your definition of “better” is a month where you only have to choose between a roof over your head and food instead of a roof over your head, medicine, and food.
What a disgusting response to the current state of the country and our decades long decline into serfdom.
Perhaps they’re comparing things to pre-COVID?
4 years ago was October 20th 2020. We were in covid by then.
Awh shit you’re right. I can’t math 😅
not just americans, same for the rest of the world too.
My teeth hurt.
Mine too 😕
I feel worse off, but know I have it better than most Americans.
I am doing way better but I was making absolute dog shit before.
Well the horrible spectre of Trump’s possible return to power has chopped off at least an extra four years off my lifespan over the last 4 years. You age 8 years in 4 and tell us how you feel.

Yep.
Too bad Kamala spent the first two months of her campaign repeating memes instead of advertising plans to benefit the working poor.
People can’t eat joy.
Democrats care about the poor about as much as Republicans care about babies once they’re born. It’s mostly lip service and a few scraps so the majority of people don’t realize we’re getting fleeced regardless of who’s in charge.
That analogy is terrifyingly accurate
