Fox News poll: Nation divided on health care law ahead of Supreme Court ruling
(page 3 of 4) View Entire Story
 Three in 10 said the court should let the entire law stand (June 3-5, 2012).   In addition, 60 percent said the requirement to buy health insurance is a violation of individual rights protected by the Constitution.

Even if the court rules against the president's major legislative accomplishment, he gets points for trying:  54 percent of voters describe the time and energy Obama spent on health care reform as a "worthwhile effort" -- even if it is invalidated.  Forty-one percent see it as a "waste of time."

Most Democrats (83 percent) think it was a worthwhile effort, while most Republicans agree with Mitt Romney's view that it was a waste (73 percent).  A 53-percent majority of independents give Obama credit for trying.  

Overall, by an eight percentage-point margin, more voters disapprove than approve of the president's job performance on health care (51 percent disapprove, 43 percent approve).
