He does a very in depth several polls and ranks them based on how partisan the question/answers are, how well the question was worded, sample size, etc.
The two most trustworthy polls KFF and the NBC/WSJ poll show a 65%, 68%, and 76% (KFF had 2 separate questions that resulted in the 65/68 split).
I don't think there should be anymore debate about what the American people actually want, based on this data, it's quite obvious that the overwhelming majority of Americans WANT the public option.
I'm all for the public option but as long as I don't have to subsidize others.
You are subsidizing others, you just don't know it. When hospitals admit people without insurance who can't pay, they just pass those costs back to us.
Should we just give you a gun and then you can shoot them too?
Troll.
Its called business sense. These hospitals aren't charities. They need to make money to survive. They need to pay doctors, charge customers, and purchase expensive equipment. If you force the hospitals to accept everyone, they'll be going out of business. You don't expect restaurants to just give free meals to every bum that comes in asking for food do you?
