>Doom and Gloom merchants are increasingly isolated when it comes to Obamacare.

JR, before we get to this, let's go back to the original statement:

"You should really pay more attention, KG. A healthy majority of Americans are happier with their health care than they were before."

I know you want to protect/placate Mike, and that's fine - but even you have to acknowledge this statement is ridiculous.

Even if I thought ACA was the greatest thing in the world, I wouldn't make a claim like that. For that matter, I won't even make the claim that a healthy majority are less happy with their plan than before. The simple reason is that too many major parts of the law have not gone into effect (due to delays in the employer mandate or effects that wouldn't be seen until the next tax year). According to one study, right now close to 60% of Americans say that the law hasn't affected them.

There's just no context for this claim to have any merit/validity.
