CNN ^ | November 14th, 2011 | CNN Political Unit

Washington (CNN) - The public is divided over the idea of requiring all Americans to have health insurance, according to a new national survey. But a CNN/ORC International Poll also indicates that support for the proposal, a cornerstone of the 2010 health care reform law, has risen since June.

Timeline as I see it.

1) Obama mandates Obamacare, threatens entire Healtcare system.

2) Healtcare system thrown into chaos, no idea what is going to happen. Large number of doctors threaten early retirement, even larger number of Health Insurance employees face unemployment

3) Fear, Uncertainty, Death - rates increase

4) Public see’s higher rates, wonders if this created chaos will mean that cheaper rates will happen Obamacare is accepted.

Just an example of the DNC policy, create a crisis, create fear and panic, and then profit from the hysteria.

What a load of concentrated bull*hit.

What group of people would sit there and say “yeah, I think people should be forced to buy health insurance”?

I am trying to figure out who they polled.
It looks like they polled 925 registered voters AND 480 republican and independent voters. Am I reading that right? 925(are these all dems?) AND 480 republicans and independents. Please help...

From the poll:
The sample also includes 925
interviews among registered voters (plus or minus 3 percentage points) and 480 Republicans and Independents that lean Republican (plus or minus 4.5 percentage points).

Yet another bogus propaganda poll by the leftists at CNN in a last ditch effort to advance Obama’s left-wing agenda. CNN downsized its staff yet again last week and they know they’re time is running out to prop up socialism before ultimately going belly-up or being bought out by some other failing news corp.

Well, that must not be true in Ohio.

Watch out for polling for the next year. The media is going to try and create false notions.

Here's what was asked:

"Do you believe that President Obama should provide low-cost, efficicent health care to all Americans, or should the Republicans be allowed to continue clubbing old people to death and cooking babies-of-color at barbeques?"

Fair question? You decide.

BS! If this is true then they had to have asked in the welfare office and told them it was free.

Of course support would rise for such a giveaway... consider:

-The Democrat plan to subvert and eliminate jobs, which puts more people on the public dole (without their former employer subsidized health care) - they now are finding themselves in need, but without (part of the plan).

-The Democrat/Leftist/Marxist efforts to penalize US businesses and business owners - restricting the profits they can “fairly gain” - companies will no longer be able to provide the health care coverages they have... putting more people in “need”.

IT is all being engineered to sway public opinion. What the idiots don’t realize, they are going to be trapped in the same social program-system that has enslaved millions in the Welfare state.

And this is ALL in the plan.

Everything about out economy is manipulated and planned. The “housing bubble” was engineered by Clinton and his masters - with help from the previous administrations and Congresses - to promote the “entitlement” that everyone should be able to “own” their own home... even if they don’t have a real employment history or if they even have a way of making payments - and eventually was expanded to include those who are not even in the US legally or have any valid identification or social security number.

IT was all planned.

Now look at the restrictions on using our natural resources - especially energy sources - all to establish a nation that capitulates first to the rest of the world, and then to subjection by those who hold the “allowed” resources (notice Obama’s guaranteed loans to a solar power company... the hope was to put them in a position of “power” (no pun intended).

But again - it is all engineered.

And this nation will NEVER emerge from the current manufactured financial troubles unless there is a return to personal responsibility (as Rush and company are labeled “racist” for suggesting). But neither political party is really interested changing the system. That is why Herman Cain has been subjected to engineered crisis - he is too much unlike the rest of the DC puppets. He believes in pulling one’s self up by the bootstraps, not the government. Any candidate that REALLY believes in or promotes personal responsibility and REAL government revolution (it is far too late for “reform”), will not be allowed in office.

So look for continued policy that forces more and more people out of employer-sponsored health care, look for additional regulations and burdens that will further drive up health care costs - all in an effort to make the “healthcare mandate” - i.e. - Government healthcare (single payer) “necessary”.
