Fifty-seven Percent of Americans Oppose Current Health Care Reform Bills

Americans don't want Congress to do anything about health care reform this year. A surprising 54% majority says they would rather Congress "do nothing on health care for now." Meanwhile, the Democrats are trying to rush a bill through Congress by Christmas.

FOX News reported:

A majority – 57% -- oppose the health-care reform legislation being considered right now. About a third of Americans – 34% -- favor the reforms. These results are from a Fox News poll released Thursday, and show the highest level of opposition to the health care bill to date.

Similarly, while 41% of Americans want Congress to pass major health care reform legislation this year, a 54% majority says they would rather Congress "do nothing on health care for now," up from 48% who felt that way in July.
Small wonder, when most people think the reforms will cost them money, and nearly twice as many think the quality of their health care will be worse rather than better.
