A new State of the State survey from Michigan State University shows residents were more upbeat about the economy than about their politicians. The survey conducted by the MSU Institute for Public Policy and Social Research shows 60% of those polled were optimistic about their current household finances and predicted they’d be better off a year from now. 58% called their finances excellent or good, while 46% said they were better off economically than a year ago. Despite the positive attitudes about the economy, less than 30-percent of those surveyed had a positive rating of President Donald Trump and Governor Snyder. The survey involved nearly 1000 people.
