We've heard a ton of good news: successful sign-ups, decreasing uninsured, premium rates decreasing or holding steady. Yet The Affordable Care Act remains unpopular!
What is going on.

From the Article:
The Henry J. Kaiser Family Foundation's health care tracking poll for July reveals that 53 percent of people view the Affordable Care Act unfavorably, a jump of 8 percentage points since June. July's results mark the fifth time since April 2010, and the first time since January, that at least half of Americans are not supportive of the health care reform law.

.The law also appears to be significantly reducing the ranks of the uninsured. According to the Department of Health and Human Services, the number of uninsured people in the nation has dropped by 10 million people because of Obamacare enrollment.
But Obamacare has always had weak support among the American public. Previous Kaiser Family Foundation surveys show only three months since Congress passed the law in March 2010 when more people approved than disapproved.
I am beginning to believe that positive public opinion will not happen until Obama leaves office. What a bloody mess.
