摘要

The new newsweek poll shows that 86 percent of adult Americans are "dissatisfied with the way things are going" in this country. That is a shocking number, but what's even more incredible is that 10 percent of American citizens continue to be "satisfied." Consider the implication: more than 22 million men and women think the country is on the right track. Who are these people? One in 10 Americans can't be repo men or Bush relatives. Satisfied? Now? Nobody's that Republican. Do these 10 percenters live in caves without TV, magazines, newspapers and the Internet-yet somehow still have a phone? And if you lived in a cave without HBO, would you really be "satisfied"? The obvious guess is that the responders misunderstood the question. So maybe a few oldladies thought the nice NEWSWEEK pollster said, Are you sad it's tied? And they said "yes" because they thought their guy had a big lead. If that's true, Gallup had the same problem: its poll found 9 percent were satisfied. Meanwhile people are selling their gold teeth and losing their homes. Corporate behemoths like Lehman Brothers, Merrill Lynch,Bear Stearns-even Linens n Things-have been swallowed up or bitten the dust. EBay is laying off people, the Postal Service is talking about layoffs-and over 22 million people are satisfied with how things are going? I guess ifyou worked for Bed, Bath & Beyond, you'd be happy about the Linens 'n Things thing, but is that kind of schadenfreude good for America?
