                            August 4, 2014What If? Americans Worry About Ebola in U.S.
Nearly half of Americans think it's likely Ebola will get into the U.S. population now that two patients will be receiving treatment in the United States, but most have some degree of confidence that the U.S. health care system will be able to contain the deadly disease - and eventually produce a vaccine to combat it.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 58% of U.S. Adults are at least somewhat concerned personally about the threat of Ebola disease which has now killed over 800 people in the latest outbreak in West Africa. Thirty-eight percent (38%) don't share that concern. This includes 18% who are Very Concerned about the disease and nine percent (9%) who are Not At All Concerned.

                            July 31, 201451% Attribute Rise in Food Stamps to Tough Economy
Just over half of Americans now blame the large increase in the number of food stamp recipients on the economy, but a sizable number still think it's because food stamps are easier to get.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 51% of American Adults think more people are receiving food stamps because of tough economic times. That’s up slightly from a year ago but below the 55% who felt that way in July 2012. Basically unchanged from last year are the 42% think the increase is because government rules have made it easier to get food stamps. That’s up slightly from 38% who felt that way two years ago.

The U.S. Department of Agriculture is proposing major changes in grocery stores to encourage Americans to alter their eating habits, including talking shopping carts and giveaway prizes for those who buy healthier items. But most Americans feel it is not the federal government’s role to try to change what they eat.

                            June 27, 201450% Favor a Government College Rating System
President Obama plans to implement a government rating system that will tie a college's performance in several areas including the earning power of its graduates to federal student financial aid. While Americans like the idea of a government rating system for colleges, they don’t trust the government to do it fairly.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 50% of American Adults favor a government college rating system. Twenty-eight percent (28%) oppose such a rating system, while 22% are undecided. (To see survey question wording, click here).

                            June 26, 201433% Say Government Should Forgive Student Loans After A Certain Period of Time
President Obama recently announced that he will use his executive power to expand debt relief programs for those with student loans, including loan forgiveness after 10 or 20 years in the workforce. Americans are only slightly more supportive of forgiving loans after a given period of time than they are of forgiving all student loans, and most say lowering tuition costs would do more for college students than making loans easier to access.
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 21% of American Adults think the federal government should forgive all student loans. This finding is unchanged in surveys going to back to 2011. Sixty-seven percent (67%) of adults think the federal government should not forgive all students loans, also in line with findings from 2011. Eleven percent (11%) are not sure.

                            June 25, 201454% Say There’s Too Much Emphasis on Standardized Testing in Schools
Americans continue to believe standardized testing should not be the chief measure of how well a school is performing. 
A new Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey finds that 54% of American Adults think schools place too much emphasis on standardized testing these days. That's up five points from 49% in November. Only 17% don’t think schools place enough emphasis on standardized testing, while just as many (15%) think the level of emphasis is about right. Another 14% are not sure. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
