Young Voters the Most Ignorant About Obamacare
37 percent under 30 say they are unfamiliar with the law
Young Americans under the age of 30 remain the least familiar age group when asked about the Affordable Care Act, according to a new poll released Monday.
The Gallup poll shows that 37 percent of Americans under 30 say they are unfamiliar with the law, more than two months after the insurance exchanges created by the law went live. For comparison, only 26 percent of Americans ages 30 to 49 and 22 percent of those between ages 50 and 64 say they are not familiar with the law.

Jes' keep pulling that D lever; don't worry about a thing. Whatever bad is happening, it's 'cause rethugs! Jes listen to your buddies!
They should thank you for only calling them ignorant.
Shallow? hollow? weak? lazy? lefty little dumb asses would be more accurate.
Speaking of Obamacare ads, I spotted that video on Youtube via Newsbusters. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f-SVV2n3Vpc
They're not ignorant. They just don't give a fuck. Just like I wouldn't give a fuck if I were in their shoes. Hell, come to think of it I don't give a fuck now! I hope it all crashes and burns.
