While I don't know what the current poll numbers reflect, I do know that most of these issues are related and cannot be separated.

Health Care, or the repeal of the Unconstitutional Obamacare which greatly degrades small businesses, is very necessary to any progress on the economy.

Jobs are linked to the Role of Government and Taxes. To make it simple (for Democrats), the expansing Role of Government taking a higher percentage of with tax payer money to fund that government growth, programs and spending degrades the government's ability to tackle the debt, and the expanding governmental powers going around Congress to develop new and heavy regulations on businesses present massive problems for the economy. Add a higher tax burden then these problems
become insurmountable, not allowing the Economy to rebound.

The Standard of Living are linked to Taxes through the heavy burden of taxation the Government lays on the population,.....okay, some of the population - the working part of the population, after all something like 47% of the population do not pay federal income taxes, leaving the rest of us to support entitlement programs for them. But no complaint here,...they are ENTITLED TO IT.

Income Inequality? What the hell are we going to do about that? Sit around and whine because somebody makes more money than we do? You want injustice? How about a Basketball player making 30 million dollars a year to play a sport, while teachers in some states start off with less than $30K a year? But you know what? I wouldn't change it or try to regulate it. The Free Market using supply and demand will take care of this.

You could say education is linked to immigration: The people who do not understand the need for a secure border to stop illegal immigration are woefully educated. We cannot and should not pay for the education for illegal immigrants. You see,....I use immigration and education together in two different sentences!
