Economy in general 24% Unemployment/Jobs 18% Dissatisfaction with Government 16% Federal budget deficit/Federal debt 11% Healthcare 6% Ethical/Moral/Family decline 5% Immigration/Illegal aliens 4% Education 4% Guns/Gun control 4% Situation with North Korea 4% Lack of Money 3% Welfare 2% Lack of respect for each other 2% Poverty/Hunger/Homelessness 2% Foreign aid/Focus overseas 2% Taxes 2% It seems like that this poll was conducted in one area. Polling 1000 people does not really give the accurate reading. It is true that our state of economy and unemployment is concern of many. I would dare to say say that percentation into both areas would be much higher. Obamacare is pretty close behind. Immigration and security also follows in close race. Gun control is not much concern of normal thinking people. Libs and majority of dems clinch to it because they do not have answers for the economy.
