Poll: Americans Don’t Like Obamacare

As President Obama Preps ‘Campaign-Style Speeches’ To Promote His Health Law, Its Unpopularity Soars
‘Far More People Think They Will Be Worse Off Under The New Law’

WJS / NBC Poll: “Americans' unease with President Barack Obama's health-care law has intensified…” (“Poll Finds Support Slumping For Health Law,” The Wall Street Journal, 6/6/13)

• Poll: ‘the number calling it a bad idea reached a high of 49%’ “Prior Journal/NBC polls have found more people calling the health law a bad idea rather than a good one. But the number calling it a bad idea reached a high of 49% in a poll of 1,000 adults taken between May 30 and June 2, with 43% "strongly" holding that view.” Ibid
• Poll: “…far more people think they will be worse off under the new law than those who think they will benefit from it, 38% to 19%, the new Journal/NBC poll found.” Ibid
• “That’s the highest percentage of respondents to express a negative outlook toward “Obamacare” since 2010, when the president signed this signature piece of legislation into law following an extended, bruising battle in Congress.” Ibid
• Poll: “Among those adults who currently buy insurance on their own, 48% think they will be worse off as a result of the new law, compared with the 13% who said they would be better off.” Ibid

“…President Barack Obama is expected to go on the road and pump up the law in campaign-style speeches… is slated to talk about it in San Jose, Calif., on Friday.” (“Selling Of Obamacare Under Way,” Politico, 6/6/13)
