The Kaiser Family Foundation released results of a non-partisan study today finding more than 40 percent did not even know the law was in place.

“Four in ten Americans (42%) are unaware that the ACA [Affordable Care Act] is still the law of the land,” the report says, “including 12 percent who believe the law has been repealed by Congress, 7 percent who believe it has been overturned by the Supreme Court and 23 percent who say they don’t know enough to say what the status of the law is.”

The survey showed public opinion on Obamacare is at its second-lowest rating in the past two years.

hoo-boy....  Guess they'll be in for an October surprise when they have to sign up for it.  They will have to fill out a three page questionaire when they apply.

If they still choose to ignore it, then they really will get a wake up call next year when they have to file their taxes and pay a fine for not filing.

No surprises here. Most people are more worried about whats on tv as opposed to something important like how much they will be FORCED to pay for healthcare. :argh:
