Point of Interest from Gallup report

http://www.gallup.com/poll/Topics.aspx

For this post I took a look at the gallup polls concerning healthcare and looked to see if anything stood out to be as interesting. I noticed the first poll to be interesting in that it showed the trend in what percent of Americans believe it is the governments responsibility to make sure Americans have health coverage. This poll showed that the trend is changing in that more people use to think that the government was responsible, but in 2010 the poll showed that a higher percentage of people do not think it is the governments responsibility. This seemed interesting to me because we are now seeing more government interaction with healthcare what with President Obama's healthcare bill, that now that the government seems to be getting more involved that more people are saying it is not the governments responsibility.

Another poll that I found interesting was one that showed the reasons people who support healthcare reform gave. The two biggest reasons are ones that I agree with in that people need healthcare-there are too many people uninsured, and that the system is currently broke and needs to be fixed. I agree with these reasons as my main reasons behind supporting healthcare reform. It was very interesting to see polls detailing how people feel about healthcare reform.
