A new global poll shows that after the Dutch, the Germans are the most positive about their current economic conditions - but they're also quite pessimistic about the future. The survey released by Pew Research Center on Monday found that 86 percent of Germans said they would describe their country’s current economic situation as “good”, putting Germany only behind the Netherlands in the worldwide comparison, where 87 percent of Dutch respondents said the same. The least happy were the Greeks with 98 percent of respondents calling their country's economy bad. The median level of happiness with the current economic situation on the continent was 47 percent, compared to 51 percent who said their country’s conditions were bad. Just 28 percent of Spaniards in the Pew poll called their economic situation good.
