In the US, it feels like the years under the Carter administration, malaise, high gas prices, inflation. These things weigh heavily on everyone's minds regardless where they stand on matters of society like politics or religion. Strong leadership yields positive and negative results, hopefully the balance is positive. Weak leadership yields malaise, which is worse than negative results, it's regressive.
