Americans feel lousy about the economic boom
Despite strong headline indicators of US economic growth, a new Axios report highlights that Americans remain unhappy with the economy, feeling squeezed by prices and costs even as the boom continues on paper. The gap between economic data and public sentiment is striking: commentators note that growth figures mean little to households who feel worse off day to day.
