According to economists, the Great Recession ended five years ago, but most Americans still don’t feel recovered from the crisis. They expect a full recovery will take until 2017 or longer.
In CNNMoney’s American Dream Poll, conducted by ORC International, 61% of Americans said they believe it will take another three years or more to recover from the 2008 financial crisis.
Some respondents were even more pessimistic: 16% said they believe the economy will never recover.
