Obamacare Versus the American People

Gallup is out this morning with a new survey of American opinions regarding the health care law.  The results are clear: A plurality of Americans – and a plurality of independents – want Obamacare repealed.  Even one-fifth of Democrats (21%) want the law removed from the statute books:

The Gallup survey comes on the heels of last month’s Kaiser Family Foundation tracking poll, which showed approval of the law at an all-time low, and that only a bare majority (52%) of Democrats supported the law.

Last year, former Speaker Pelosi famously said we had to pass the bill to find out what’s in it.  This morning’s survey once again illustrates that the American people have found what’s in the 2700-page Obamacare law – and they don’t much like it.
