When people talk of the economy being strong, they don't seem to feel that they, too, are better off.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
It is clear that the economy has not gotten better for everyone.
You know, out-of-touch liberals like Barack Obama say they want a strong economy, but in everything they do, they show they don't like business very much. But the economy, of course, is simply the product of all the businesses of the nation added together. So it's a bit like saying you like an omelet, but you don't like eggs.
This economy is not getting better and the president's policies are the reason.
Look, 85% percent of Democrats think the economy's fine. What does that tell you about these people?
Massive inequality, we have learned, isn't the best way to run an economy after all. And when you think about it, it's also profoundly ugly.
When people are healthy and not hungry, they are stronger workers building a robust economy.
People today don't become economists to make the world a better place.
Naturally we are aware of the strength of our economy and naturally we don't want to downplay it.
The economy works best when better ideas win out over worse ideas, harder work wins out over less work, when it's a fair fight in the marketplace.
Contrary to common assumption, many of the wealthiest Americans aren't worried about the weakening economy at all. They are actually excited about it.
