A ** you don't have permission to see this link ** commissioned by The University of Texas and released July 16th shows that Americans oppose the proposed Health Care Reform bill introduced in the House on July 14th. Two days is all it took for the negatives to drop to -8 on this bill. More proof that the message is getting out there!

Key Quotes:

According to the survey, which was conducted by Zogby International, most Americans are unwilling to pay higher taxes and instead favor more innovative approaches that would use the savings from improving care and curtailing waste and fraud to fund health care for the uninsured.

Key survey findings included that 84 percent of those who are currently insured are satisfied with their health care. For those without insurance, only 46 percent had some level of satisfaction with their health care. Almost 80 percent agreed that rising healthcare costs are hurting American businesses. An expanded role for government in health care is opposed by 48 percent of Americans, while 44 percent support it. Forty-six percent of respondents agreed that a public plan is needed to \"keep insurance companies honest.\"
