The Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey results of the U.S. government healthcare reform bill remain similar to the results of the previous week. The results, released today, show that 55% of U.S. Likely Voters favor a repeal of the health care bill. While this is down from 59% last week, it is within the range that is has been since the bill was passed in March, between 52% to 60%.
The same percentage of voters as last week, 38%, continue to oppose repeal of the bill. This figure has had a little wider of a range since March, ranging from 32% to 42%.
A figure that stands out on this week’s poll is the percentage of voters who believe that government healthcare costs will go up under the new healthcare plan. Sixty-percent of voters believe the costs will rise, which is just one point below the highest level measured in mid-July. A very small amount of people-16%- believe that the costs will go down under the new plan, while another 16% expect no change.
The percentage of people who think that the plan will be bad for the country has decreased from last week, down to 52%.
The majority of voters, 52%, believe that they will be receiving a poorer quality of care under the national healthcare bill, a figure that has remained fairly steady since the bill was passed. About 20% of people each think that the quality of healthcare will improve with the Obama healthcare system or will remain as it currently is.
The party split remains a strong point of opposition or support for the bill, as 75% of Republicans Strongly Favor repeal of the bill and 50% of Democrats are Strongly Opposed. Of the voters not affiliated with either major political party, 42% Strongly Favor repeal. It seems as though the majority who favor repeal of the bill believe that healthcare costs will increase under the new plan. Only 37% of Democrats agree with this claim.
Another poll done by Rasmussen Reports last week shows that 54% of U.S. Voters disagree with the part of the government healthcare bill that requires each American to buy or obtain health insurance. Forty-three percent favor the requirement, which is being challenged in court by a number of states.
