An increasing number of people, especially those with higher incomes, feel the country is moving in the wrong direction, according to a recent survey.
Approximately 20 percent of 2,000 people surveyed in August 2009 were unhappy with the direction of the country, according to the International Republican Institute, a US democracy group.
The most unhappy were those who earned more than $300 per month; 26 percent of them said they thought the country was going in the wrong direction.
Of those surveyed, 79 percent said they thought the country was generally moving in the right direction, a decline from 82 percent in November 2008. It was the first decline in the survey since August 2006.
