Take the Kaiser foundation's quiz on health care reform

[eridani]

I'd expect 10 for 10 from mosr people here. One really scary thing is that some questions only 25%-40% gpt right.

The health reform law promises to deliver big changes in the U.S. health care system. But, as with other sweeping pieces of legislation, it can be hard to get the real facts about what it does. And it is all too easy for misinformation about the law to spread.

Take our short, 10-question quiz to test your knowledge of the law, and then find out how you compare to the rest of the country, as represented by the findings of the Kaiser Family Foundation's monthly Health Tracking Poll.

1. Thanks for Posting

I missed one, because it's early and I clicked it too fast without completely reading the question. Must have more coffee and enjoy it's health benefits!

2. You answered 10 out of 10 questions correctly, better than 99.6% of Americans.

That's ridiculous.

[Firebrand Gary]

3. You answered 9 out of 10 questions correctly, better than 97% of Americans.

Thanks for posting, this is a great tool. Unfortunately it makes me incredible sad, but determined. Better than 97% of Americans?????????????

We as a party need to do whatever we have to do to get the correct information out about the ACA. This type of result is clearly what the GOP has been working towards.

4. The DNC should buy 30 minutes of airtime to explain just these 10 points. nt

5. Quick, Entertaining & Informative! But you can NOT change answers (Got 9 out of 10)

[Paka]

6. I didn't read the whole thing,

but I guess I do know what is there. I got 10 out of 10 and I do try to educate people. Sadly, most of my friends already "get it!" I am preaching to the choir a lot, but that allows me to refine my message. We all have to spread the message. This year is a do or die year for democracy in America.

7. Got 10 of 10

If you've been paying attention (and I assume everyone here has) the quiz is not difficult.

8. 10 out of 10, kinda to easy

It should be "Are you misinformed about the health care law" quiz.

10. kick !! Just sent this to my wingnuts inlaws.

11. I left off one by accident (sometmes I screw up using my finger instead of mouse).

So I got 9 out of 10. Quite simple. I presume people that don't do well on this watch Fox.

12. 9/10

"better than 97% of Americans". Clearly, Obama and the administration need to do more to help Americans understand this law.

[NRaleighLiberal]

13. oh well - 90% - at least it is a low A!

missed the one about requiring even small businesses to provide coverage....

[90-percent]

14. had to answer "I dont know" for #9

Still heartening to know more about this than 97% of America.

I owe a deep debt to DU for their continuing education into "current events"

16. Heartening for us, sure

But the ignorance which is the norm is pretty scary.

[90-percent]

18. Corporate Propaganda

Everything most Americans know is BULLSHIT!

And that's exactly the way our current PLUTOCRACY wants it!

Isn't there a more noble aspiration in life for these fuckers than naked greed? What the fuck is wrong with some SHARED PROSPERITY like America enjoyed for about 30 years after WW2?

I'm a 58 year old boomer, and looking back on my life, I didn't know until recently that the middle class prosperity I took for granted in my youth has been slowly taken away from all of us for the last thirty years.

American Democracy needs an EXTERMINATOR to rid ourselves of the Greedy SOCIOPATHS that have captured virtually ALL OF OUR INSTITUTIONS!

Back in a minute to cut and paste that wonderful Chris Hedges quote recently posted on DU via Facebook.

"We now live in a nation where doctors destroy health, lawyers destroy justice, universities destroy knowledge, governments destroy freedom, the press destroys information, religions destroy morals and our banks destroy the economy" – Chris Hedges
