Gallup reported Thursday that folks' feelings about their financial situation is the worst since the company started keeping track. According to the polling firm people say they're worse off than even at the depths of the economic downturn.

When asked the question, "Right now do you have enough money to live comfortably or not?," more people than ever before, 39%, reported that they do not. That compares to 33% who responded the same way shortly after Barack Obama's inauguration.
