If this is coming from the #FakeNewsNetwork, I would bump up the results to declare it UNANIMOUS support!

There is no consequence of repealing it that is worse than keeping it for one single day longer.

As much of an Obamacare opponent as I am, we have to be careful about these polls. People want effective, affordable healthcare. They know Obamacare isn’t delivering it to them. But that doesn’t mean that the population has turned into laissez-faire conservatives either. We are going to end up with something that gets rid of a lot of Obamacare but leaves some in place. The trick will be how to pay for the mandate to cover pre-existing conditions. I highly doubt that will be dropped.

If coverage is mandated then preexisting conditions must be accepted and covered, but the cost associated with this is more than working poor and middle class can afford to pay. That, along with noncitizens by the millions coming in and being covered at the highest level of subsidy, is why it doesn’t work and isn’t accepted. It costs way more than the so-so plans it largely replaced, but nothing was gained for average citizens. The deductible is just as high if not higher, the copays are too, and the monthly bill is, what, triple by now compared to what it was prior to Obamacare? We’re talking people who were already stretched thin, it’s not as if they had extra money lying around every month. This bit to the bone for a lot of people.

Get the noncitizens (the illegal ones) out of the US.

That will have an effect.

You are a lunatic. Your opinion of zilch-0 is greater than your IQ.

A substantial chunk of that 55% wants to replace it with single payer.

CNN is playing games with statistics again.

Regardless, the media will try to create fear and doubt among the low-information voters.

My question is: How profitable were the health insurance companies back when the U.S. health care system was known as the best on the planet.

Now we still have profitable health insurance companies (or whatever they are called) but the services provided are broken or too expensive.

Let's just return to something that was not broken to begin with. IOW, repeal and replace while removing 30-million criminal invaders from any entry into a U.S. healthcare facility...Deport them...

And the Davos elites also believe that the agenda Trump is pursuing is not right -yet there he goes.

Stop being apathetic and start being positive - God knows we have every reason to be up.

Pubbies in Congress want piecemeal repeal or none. HSA is useless unless you keep the money. Get to work if you want to keep your majority.

Preexisting coverage only for those who bought insurance when young and healthy. People who lose insurance because of job loss should be able to continue buying at the group rate.

What of people who come down with cancer while without coverage? Return to a medical system that allows and even encourages charity hospitals? Or, tough, just let them die? Just letting them die untreated isn’t going to fly. It didn’t fly before Obamacare.

How about a poll of people that are paying for it. Not the subsidized or get it free folks.
