Sixty-one percent (61%) of voters nationwide say that cost is the biggest health care problem facing the nation today. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that just 21% believe the lack of universal health insurance coverage is a bigger problem.
Only 10% believe the quality of care is the top concern, and two percent (2%) point to the inconvenience factor of dealing with the current medical system.
When asked about a choice between health care reform that would require changing existing health insurance coverage or no health care reform and no change from current coverage, voters oppose reform by a 54% to 32% margin.
This is consistent with other surveys released at the end of this past week show that 78% believe the passage of health care reform is likely to mean middle-class tax hikes. Also, by a 50% to 35% margin, Americans oppose the creation of a government insurance company to compete with private insurers.
