A disapproving snapshot of Obamacare

Despite the early big winners, who stand to reap the monetary rewards of a government takeover of America's heath care system, the average joe (you and me) affected by such a disastrous imposition want Obamacare defunded now!
PewResearch: Currently, 53% disapprove of the health care law, while 42% approve. This is among the most negative assessments of the law since it was enacted in March 2010.

The current survey finds more intense opposition than support for the health care law. While 41% strongly disapprove of the law, only about a quarter (26%) strongly approve.
And even more damning, only 12% of Americans believe Obamacare will have any positive effect on their family...
Breitbart: A new NBC/Wall Street Journal poll reveals Americans are unconvinced that Obamacare will improve the country's healthcare system. Only 12% say the law will have a positive effect on their family and even the uninsured are skeptical Obamacare will do them any good.

Only 23% of all respondents say the law will benefit the healthcare system and paltry 12% believe the law will have a positive impact on their family.

The public is not predicting positive developments arising from the law, with more than half (52%) expecting healthcare costs to rise. One consequence of the unpopular law is that businesses have already started pushing people off their current health insurance plans and are cutting hours to avoid the law's mandate to provide coverage to 30 hour+ workers. As three-quarters (73%) arealready satisfied with their current healthcare coverage, the net result of Obamacare appears to be strictly detrimental: higher healthcare costs, fewer work hours for employees and those who are satisfied with their health insurance, losing that coverage.
