America doesn't like Obamacare because America doesn't understand Obamacare.

That must be it. Of course.

Any republican who votes to defund Obamacare will really be in for it once America finally understands just how great it is.

I didn’t follow the end of the article. It made it sound like the uninsured would favor 0bamacare, because it finally addresses their needs. Let’s take a look at the dynamic with these “uninsured” people:

1. They are getting their hours cut, many to being able to just barely eke out an existence, because of 0bamacare;

2. Then they get whacked for the cost of insurance on the exchanges, which they cannot afford, assuming their state is even participating in an exchange;

3. Or in the alternative, they have to go out on the private market, and I’ll bet the cost there is no different;

4. Or if they don’t want insurance, they get whacked with a tax/penalty/fine/attainder/whatever the Supreme Court wants to call it;

I just don’t see how these people are going to be grateful for that kind of attention.

Oh, brother. The propagandists are working overtime to portray this turd and solid gold.

And the main characteristic of public opinion is that people have no idea how the law works.

Here my visual of how Obamacare came to be:

They set up a computer somewhere at the Capitol in a room where only democrats knew about it.

They had a sign above the computer that read, Any healthcare idea you have ever had import here

So, any democrat with a thumb drive stepped up to add their ideas.

Problem is how do you collate all that information into any sort of comprehensible order? All those anti-American, anti-free enterprise ideas designed to uproot 1/6 of our economy and also designed specifically to ingratiate itself into the delicate relationship between a person and their doctor by injecting a nosy government agent.

"When we get this all passed by Congress then we will make 'adjustments' as needed."

All of the 'adjustments' will be designed to clean up any incidental 'mistakes' that might impinge on the liberal elite.

And the main characteristic of public opinion is that people have no idea how the law works.

Why is this in the news section?
Isn't there a "Humor" section here in FR?

NOBODY has any idea how the law works. Even Congress couldn't be bothered to write it or read it, never mind understand it!

Who the hell, even if educated enough, has the time to read 12,000 pages of legislation, with 20,000 pages of "clarifications" and policies?

There should be an Amendment adopted that would make any law passed by Congress null and void, if the average citizen can't understand it. Make the decision automatic if a present member of Congress (both houses, chosen at random) can't explain it in a public forum.

Any government initiative that takes more than 10 pages to explain is doomed to be a disaster.

Under Obamacare you will have to admit what kind of sex you have had and who with. Oh brother!

IRS just cannot wait to get that into the data base. It will improve both health and tax compliance (Blackmail).

[Cicero]

Most of the provisions of the law, when described to people, poll well.

When described by left-wing liars, you mean.

And the main characteristic of public opinion is that people have no idea how the law works.

NOBODY knows how the law works, including the guys who wrote it. NOBODY. So, the polling only improves when the leftist Obamakissers and Obama's special propaganda troops lie and lie and lie their heads off. But it only improves slightly, and then falls back, since the explanations are impossible to understand.

[Savage Beast]

" people have no idea how the law works."

Neither did the Congresspersons who voted it into law.

In fact, they hadn't read it and didn't know what was in it.
