(CNS News) -- A new poll shows that 50% of American adults are "very dissatisfied" with "the way things are going in the nation today." 

In addition, another 24% are "somewhat dissatisfied," making the total of dissatisfied Americans, to one degree or another, 74%.

The poll also showed that only 3% of Americans are "very satisfied" with the way things are going in the nation, and only 22% are "somewhat satisfied" -- a total of 25%.

In the survey, conducted (Nov. 11-15) by Quinnipiac University, the pollsters asked, "In general, how satisfied are you with the way things are going in the nation today; are you very satisfied, somewhat satisfied, somewhat dissatisfied, or very dissatisfied?"

The complete responses are illustrated in the box below.
