News talk 2013-12-31: Positive poll for economy

I believe that when people have positive outlooks, they collectively make good outcomes more likely. So, attitude matters. And this is a good sign, even though this Fox News poll differs from other recent ones that found contrary results on similar questions.

Although it’s understandable that people would look optimistically toward the next year late in December, I’m surprised about their assessment of 2013. Overall, I would personally rate it as a bad year, all things considered. — MC
