However, a Gallup poll conducted in late November suggests that large numbers of people under 30 are not only disinterested in the ACA, they seem to be unaware it even exists.

This might be because some people find Miley interesting to look at, as well as the media bombarding the public with ACA information to the point that many feel they don’t need to search online. Too many confounding factors to give this much significance.

Not surprising, people just don’t care. They vote for whoever their parents, or closest friends vote for. Most are sheeple that can’t think for themselves.

As gross as she is, if I could get rid of only one, it would be Miley’s luckiest day since she fell in love with a wrecking ball.

Oh that is BS. I haven’t done a search on either Affordable Care Act or Obamacare. I get more than my share of information on Obamacare right here on Free Republic. I get a very fine education here.

Oh, maybe I should have said “most people” or “low information voters”. Of course you and I care, but it’s the people that don’t that are causing us the pain.

Who would want to look up information on their upcoming doom?

And, people like to look at train wrecks as they happen...Lohan, Kardashian,...Obama admisnistration. Some are slow, some are fast, some are designed by machiavelli, but folks can’t turn away.

It’s the idiocy of the “Obamacare” comparison that got me to click and comment here.

True. I group everybody together many times. Bottom line, I am just glad that you and I and others on here are informed about Obamascam.
