47% Believe States Should Have Right to Opt Out of Health Care Plan
Saturday, January 02, 2010
If the health care plan before Congress becomes law, 47% of voters nationwide believe states should have the right to opt out of it.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 40% disagree and oppose an opt-out clause for individual states. Thirteen percent (13%) are undecided.
A majority of those who favor the health care plan are opposed to the state opt-out provision. So are a majority of those who only mildly oppose the plan before Congress.
But those who Strongly Oppose the health care plan favor allowing states to opt out by a 76% to 13% margin.
Sixty-two percent (62%) of Republicans favor the state opt-out concept while 55% of Democrats are opposed.
As for those not affiliated with either major party, 49% prefer the opt-out, and 39% do not.
Conservatives tend to like the idea, liberals don’t, and moderates are evenly divided.
More than anything else, these results should be seen as a desire by those who Strongly Oppose the proposed health care plan to do whatever they can to stop its implementation.
