Americans Name The Us’ Worst Problem — And It’s Not Inflation Or Immigration

[Sugar Cookie]

Americans now say that a lack of leadership from President Biden and the Congress is the country’s biggest problem — outpacing inflation, the immigration crisis and the state of the economy, according to a poll released on Monday.

Despite Americans getting socked in the wallet, “the government/poor leadership” took over the No. 1 spot from inflation over the past year, with 21% of Americans naming it as the “most important problem facing this country today” compared to the 15% who said so last year, a Gallup Poll found.

Inflation and the economy came in last year as the top two issues — tied at 16% each — followed by the government (15%), immigration (8%) and unifying the country (6%).

Over the past year, Americans’ concerns with the economy fell 6 percentage points to 10%, inflation fell one point to 15%, and immigration rose 3 points to 11%. The percentage of Americans who named unifying the country as one of the problems remained the same.

No surprise there.

Even if the government did absolutely nothing, it'd be an improvement over what we're getting now.

Fucking people complain about poor leadership after electing a senile dumbass who was a fucking idiot before he was senile.

Poor leadership probably tops the list because it's the root of most of the problems that follow. Even with respect to ethics and morals, the American president was once a model to be respected and looked up to. Now, he's just a pinata to take whacks at but with no toys that fall out.
