You hear them say it all over the place. \u00c2\u00a0“People will love Obamacare once it rolls out”. \u00c2\u00a0But is that really true?<\/p>\n

I know the polls have been saying for a long time that more Americans oppose it than support it. \u00c2\u00a0So now that it’s “rolled out” are people jumping for joy or are they still skeptical?<\/p>\n

Unfortunately for those on the left the answer is, the American people still don’t like it. \u00c2\u00a0Here’s an interesting image from one of the left’s favorite hangouts, the Huffington Post. \u00c2\u00a0I don’t want them to be able to say “oh you are just using Fox News polls”.<\/p>\n

Looks like it’s still not American’s favorite thing since sliced bread. \u00c2\u00a0Maybe as time goes on people will forget how it was before this monstrosity was passed. \u00c2\u00a0You know, kind of like putting a frog in cold water on a stove then turning on the heat. (by the way, that doesn’t really work but it’s still a great metaphor)<\/p>\n

After all people seem to like Medicare now even though at the time it was a huge entitlement.<\/p>\n

As for me I wish we could go back to what our founders had in mind before people like Woodrow Wilson and FDR turned it into a land of entitlements. \u00c2\u00a0But I realize that will never happen and just like Rome we will eventually spend ourselves out of a country.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
