Dude,
Dude,
Did you even bother to read the entire article? You never post any thoughts or ideas, you just cut and paste random articles with some non-sequitor about what it means to you. Half the time, those articles are from shit sources and say nothing. The other half, you haven't even bothered to read them properly yourself. Seriously. Look at the list of items on which dissatisfaction has grown significantly. These are the issues facing people today. Either you are incapable of actually empathizing with real human beings on issues that actually matter to them, or you just deliberately enjoying trolling people. Either way, you're a douche.

A few years ago, doctors
A few years ago, doctors stopped prescribing pain meds so easily as it became known that doctors and big pharma were in bed together to increase opiate sales. Fewer pills =fewer overdoses. Trump had nothing to do with it.

From the article referred to
From the article referred to in the OP:
Americans' average satisfaction rating for the 27 issues Gallup has tracked consistently since 2001 is now 47%. This is up three points from a year ago and is the highest since the January 2005 poll.
Today's average satisfaction is roughly on par with the level of the early 2000s. Only in 2002 was the average for this metric substantially higher than it is today. The average 53% recorded that year reflected heightened satisfaction as Americans were in full "rally around the flag" mode shortly after the 9/11 attacks.
Today's average satisfaction rating reflects significant increases since 2001 in Americans' satisfaction with the nation's military strength (up 20 points) and the acceptance of gays and lesbians (+21), as well as with energy policy (+12), taxes (+11) and healthcare (+8).
One reason average satisfaction isn't higher now than in 2001 is that satisfaction has since declined sharply on matters related to the performance of the federal government: the system of government and how well it works (down 25 points); the role the U.S. plays in world affairs (-18); and the size and power of the federal government (-12). Satisfaction is also down compared with 2001 on abortion policy (-11), the environment (-10), poverty and homelessness (-8), and race relations (-8).
Additionally, Americans' satisfaction has been persistently low on several other issues, including the moral and ethical climate, campaign finance laws, public education, and immigration.

Also Trump's environmental policies will result in more cancer deaths. It might take a few years. So yeah, fuck him.

Yo, dumb-ass...
Cancer Death Rate in U.S. Sees Sharpest One-Year Drop
Breakthrough treatments for lung cancer and melanoma have driven down cancer mortality overall — and from 2016 to 2017 spurred the largest-ever decline
Experts attributed the decline to the reduced smoking rates and to advances in lung cancer treatment. New therapies for melanoma of the skin have also helped extend life for many people with metastatic disease, or cancer that has spread to other parts of the body.

^ there's a few others here that also fit that bill. Never discuss anything intelligently, never start an interesting thread, unless its a straight cut n paste with no commentary whatsoever. They just show up occasionally to needle someone else's legit point of view. They're like a pebble in your shoe, and proud of it. They know who they are. Fucking worthless shitbirds, not to mention terrible zoners
