A new CBS News poll finds more Americans than ever want the Affordable Care Act repealed.

According to the poll, 36 percent of Americans want Congress to expand or keep the health care law while 39 percent want Congress to repeal it - the highest percentage seen in CBS News polls. The poll also found a majority of Americans - 54 percent - disapprove of the health care law, 36 percent of Americans approve of it and 10 percent said they don't know about it.

The poll also found just 13 percent of Americans say the health care law will personally "help me" while 38 percent said they believe the law will personally "hurt me."

Obamacare will go the way of Prohibition. It will be repealed eventually and nothing so silly and impractcal will be tried again.

10 percent said they don't know about it.

What does this mean? Does it mean they don't know anything about it, or does it mean they don't know everything about it.

If the former, these people are too stupid to be allowed to vote.

If the latter, then they are like everyone else. No one knows everything about the law - not even those who voted for it.

You are spot-on with that observation.

Even for people to my left who think the government needs to monkey with healthcare, this thing is too Rude-Goldberg ridiculously complex, Huey Long corrupt, and was passed via the most opaque, underhanded, slimy, objectionable process in history.

My fear is that America will first.

But I hope and pray you are right.

Wait until people begin to experience Obamacare. That’s when practically everyone will want it repealed.

Americans don’t care about the fact 0bamacare is Unconstitutional.. After the NSA scandal they’re just concerned there will be a free-for-all with medical records across the many federal agencies. This could prove embarrassing for some people.

That’s nice. Since when does the ruling class care what the masses want?

Because of Obamacare, my son’s hours were reduced by 25%, which means that he can no longer afford to help my divorced daughter with her house rent (he is staying with her and her son), which means that he might have to move back home, which means she will probably lose her house, which means she can no longer earn money by doing in-home day care. Nice work, Obama.

"36 percent of Americans approve of it and 10 percent said they don't know about it."

They should probably include the 10 percent in the 36 percent.
