Americans fear the end: Economic collapse looms largest on the nation’s mind, potentially costing Biden the presidency
==========

A poll by Ipsos' Consumer Tracker reveals that a third (33%) of Americans fear the end of the U.S. will be the result of a total economic collapse. Other fears include World War III (25%), climate change (19%), another pandemic (12%), and killer robots (2%). Republicans are more concerned about economic turmoil (48%) compared to Democrats (22%) and independents (37%). President Biden's success in the next seven months will depend on the economy's performance and inflationary pressure easing. The U.S. economy is stronger than it may feel to many Americans, but people are still feeling down due to the pandemic and looming recessions. Another concern is the possibility of another worldwide war, which is a concern for 25% of Americans. The next president will have to address these crises and anxieties, including the cost of groceries and less-apparent problems like killer robots.
