More people believe changes will make things worse for health care system
Americans overwhelmingly see the new health-care law as a major shift in the direction of the country, but they remain as deeply divided today over the changes as they were throughout the long congressional debate, according to a Washington Post poll.
In the days since President Obama signed the farthest-reaching piece of social welfare legislation in four decades, overall public opinion has changed little, with continuing broad public skepticism about the effects of the new law and more than a quarter of Americans seeing neither side as making a good-faith effort to cooperate on the issue.
Overall, 46 percent of those polled said they support the changes in the new law; 50 percent oppose them. That is virtually identical to the pre-vote split on the proposals and similar to the divide that has existed since last summer, when the country became sharply polarized over the president's most ambitious domestic initiative.

What you always leave out is a large percentage of the 50% against believe it did not go far enough. A lot of those people want a single pay system.

ReplyDeleteand its tough to find someone that supports it to explain why it is the best way to go...when you ask them why it will be better, you pretty much get, "just because".

Are you people saying the present "previous conditions" and outrageous premiums for individuals is ok? Do you think this Health Care System of the present day is ok? I am not speaking of free.......I have known little "free" in my life. If this were a republican president would it be ok with you GOPers? I bet it would....
