This is the sort of thing that drives me crazy....

This report is the sort of news that drives me crazy.  With all the anger at the Obama administration we get this news about dissatisfaction with the new  health plan.  And it's not because people want it repealed.  One question: where were all of you when Obama was being persecuted for being "socialist" for his health care plan?  Here's part of the report of a recent poll from MSNBC:

WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama's health care overhaul has divided the nation, and Republicans believe their call for repeal will help them win elections in November. But the picture's not that clear cut.  A new AP poll finds that Americans who think the law should have done more outnumber those who think the government should stay out of health care by 2-to-1.

"I was disappointed that it didn't provide universal coverage," said Bronwyn Bleakley, 35, a biology professor from Easton, Mass. 

More than 30 million people would gain coverage in 2019 when the law is fully phased in, but another 20 million or so would remain uninsured. Bleakley, who was uninsured early in her career, views the overhaul as a work in progress. 

The poll found that about four in 10 adults think the new law did not go far enough to change the health care system, regardless of whether they support the law, oppose it or remain neutral. On the other side, about one in five say they oppose the law because they think the federal government should not be involved in health care at all.

Hmmm.  Don't you think your voice of support for a more comprehensive health plan could have helped earlier?
