Percentage-wise, more...So let me get this straight. Percentage-wise, more Brown voters (41%) than non-voters (39%) are unsure why they oppose the health care bill.<br />In short, the more motivated they are about opposing the bill, the less likely they are to know why they feel this way?<br />Yeah. Wtf?<br /><br />Also, I wouldn't blame the media for that. Even if there was a concise summary of the bill, readily available to the public (if you can even make a "concise" summary of a thousand-or-so page bill), I doubt that the 41% in question would be paying enough attention to find it. The problem is more apathy, and less lack of information. Granted, the less effort it takes to be informed, the fewer people will be too lazy to do so...Jacobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10195437461989719529noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8785387207570374478.post-51239347609861405552010-01-22T14:40:38.616-05:002010-01-22T14:40:38.616-05:00@ DCJonesy can you blame that on the American peop...@ DCJonesy can you blame that on the American people? I think it speaks more to the lack of concise information regarding the bill. And, that blame falls on the media. I know more about what is not in it than what is. I barely hear any news regarding what is in this bill. The only focus on it is what it lacks and how its lifesupport is connected to the state of massachussetts.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8785387207570374478.post-48764989791958594282010-01-22T13:40:19.290-05:002010-01-22T13:40:19.290-05:0041% opposed reform but didn't know why?!
