Georgia

The few times I have I've gotten much less flak than I thought I would. When people are bitching about Obama-care (aka Affordable Care Act) I ask if they don't think it's a good idea to be able to keep their kids on insurance until age 26, most of the time their answer is "well, I like that part of it". Then when asked if it's a good thing that insurance companies can no longer refuse coverage based on preexisting conditions, it's more of "yes, but.....". And when pressed for what they don't like about the Affordable Care Act the only thing they ever come up with is that nobody should be forced to buy health insurance (and of course the answer to that is to follow the European and Canadian models of healthcare, which of course end up costing less than our bloated healthcare system.

I think that, at least in this part of the country, repubs have been so vocal and hateful for so long that anyone is afraid to speak up and disagree with them.
