Rasmussen: Voters More Worried about Obamacare Hurting Economy than Sequester

A new poll Friday reveals Americans are more worried about Obamacare than the automatic federal spending cuts that are due to begin today.

This from pollster Scott Rasmussen:

Despite the inside-the-Beltway warnings about the economic impact [of] the sequester spending cuts, voters are more worried about what President Obamas new health-care law will do to the economy.

Forty-eight percent (48%) of Likely U.S. Voters think the health-care law is more likely to hurt the economy than cutting government spending. A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 29 percent (29%) believe spending cuts will hurt the economy more. Fifteen percent (15%) think neither will hurt economically.

The survey of 1,000 Likely Voters was conducted on Feb. 24-25 by Rasmussen Reports. The margin of sampling error is +/- 3 percentage points.
