NEW YORK (CNNMoney.com) -- As the White House and Congress hammer out the details of a rescue plan for embattled financial institutions, Americans worry that it may reward bad behavior but they also fear that doing nothing may hurt the economy, according to a poll released Tuesday.

In a CNN/Opinion Research poll, 79% of 1,020 respondents said they were worried that the economy could get worse if the government takes no action.

However, 77% also said they believed that a government bail-out would benefit those responsible for the economic downturn in the first place. The poll was taken on Sept. 19-21 and had a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.

The Bush administration, under the guidance of Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson, has proposed that the federal government buy up approximately $700 billion in problematic assets from financial institutions in order to give them the liquidity they need to stay afloat.
