State Of The Union? Gallup Sees Discontent, Gloom

Only 23% of Americans are broadly satisfied with the way things are going in the country right now according to the latest Gallup Poll. 

OMG, that means three out of every four of us is DISSATISFIED.

And, get this: barely a third of us are pleased with "our system of government and how it works" and barely a quarter are satisfied with "the size and influence of major corporations". But there's more: only one in five Americans is pleased with "the moral and ethical climate in the nation". 

Many of these figures represent new lows. There's a word for this: OMINOUS!
