Somewhere on Twitter that I can't find, this survey was charted back into the 1970s. The lowest the positive response was reported was during stagflation, oil embargo, post-Vietnam years, and it was in the 70%.

Yup. The economy matters A LOT. Perhaps the crowd on Hacker News have stable careers so don't value it quite as much, so we find other things to worry about ;-)
