Fascinating little window

Almost 60% of respondents wrongly believe that the country is in a recession (it hasn’t been since 2020)
55% believe the economy is shrinking (it is growing)
49% say unemployment is at a 50-year high (it’s close to a 50-year low)
58% said the reason the economy is worsening is due to Biden’s mismanagement
