No ‘Progress’ for Obamacare: Americans Still Uninsured and Unaware of Mandate

The vast majority of Americans, 81%, say they are aware of the Obamacare (ACA’s) requirement that most Americans must carry health insurance or pay a fine. Americans who are currently uninsured – which ironically are those most directly affected by the mandate – apparently weren’t paying much attention to the healthcare debate when the monstrosity was passed. The uninsured are much less likely to be aware of the provision, with 56% saying they know about it and 43% saying they are unaware.
