>> That said, to my consternation and regret, everyone I talk to about ACA knows next to nothing about the law or the subject in general. Most of the people I talk to on a daily basis do understand it reasonably well, since they are implementing it and see the problems it has created for people. These people may have bought the propaganda campaign before it rolled out but they see first hand the effects and they're not good. As to polls, for the last two months it has turned slightly favorable. The rest of its existence people have opposed it. You might want to think about why that is. Clearly, people do NOT like Obamacare -- they have opposed it for years now. But in the last two months, they have been subject to the liberal propaganda campaign and they are fearful of what they may end up with given the disaster that ACA was. They're assuming government cannot do better. The law is clearly a failure. It may have had a righteous objective but in the end it turned out just about like the more knowledgeable people predicted it would. There is no choice to keep it. That is not workable because in a few short years the program is in collapse. A death spiral. No matter how much you try to turn it into a good thing, it is not. I don't know what the last two months polls mean, but but it doesn't matter because the program is not sustainable.
