Health surveys are unpopular Obamacare on the eve of the launch

The Affordable Care Act is unpopular that ever, with whom they disapprove divided about if the law should be reformed or scrapped, according to a Pew Research/USA Today survey released on Monday.

Forty-two percent of Americans approved of the law, while 53 percent disapproved. It is the highest rate of disapproval that Pew has found since the enactment of the law in 2010. Attitudes among the uninsured were somewhat more positive, with 49 percent approval and 46 percent disapproval.

A survey of NBC/Wall Street Journal, also published on Monday, found similar opposition, with 44 per cent of Americans calling the attention of health law a bad idea and 31 percent call it a good idea. NBC released a series of explanations of the respondents by their opinions, fears about "death panels" and rising costs, the happiness that pre-existing conditions are covered and young adults can be covered by the insurance of their parents.

Average of HuffPost pollster of all of the available public polls put disapproval of Obamacare in approximately 53 per cent.

In the Pew poll, those who did not approve of the law on health care divided into what lawmakers should do next: 27 per cent of respondents said that lawmakers should try to make Obamacare work best, and 23 percent said that they seek to derail it.

"This strategic issue is a particular point of conflict within the Republican party," said the Pew report. Republicans as a whole were only slightly more likely to fail law want improved, while 64 percent of tea Republicans wanted the right to fail.

Americans are divided almost evenly over which party trusted more to handle health care. Forty percent said that they believe that the Republican Party would do a better job dealing with health care, while 39 percent preferred Democrats. It is the first time that a Pew poll found GOP ahead in health care since 1990 at least. While the size of the edge of the Democrats has varied widely in the past, a survey of December 2012 had put 10 points ahead of Republicans on the issue.

More than three years later became the Affordable Care Act, 34 percent said they do not yet have a good understanding of does them the law. Only 51 percent knew that a health insurance Exchange will be available in your state. Awareness of the exchanges was significantly higher in the States that chose to run their own bags, or partnering with the federal Government that in States where trade will be led by the federal Government.

The NBC/WSJ survey also found that only 30 percent said that they understand the law of "very well" or "fairly good" health.

"As it turns out, that 30 per cent has more positive views about the health law (42 per cent good idea, bad idea of 45 percent), against 34 per cent do not understand it very well (17 percent good idea, bad idea 44 percent)," Mark Murray of NBC wrote.

The Pew/USA Today survey interviewed 1,504 adults between September 4 and September 8, while the NBC/WSJ poll surveyed 1,000 adults between September 5 and September 8. Both use telephone interviews live.
