I wonder how grandma and grandpa (the strongest voting bloc, by the way) feel about “Medicare for All”? Considering they paid into the system their entire life and now potentially see their benefits looted and healthcare rationed so some 20 something illegal who just walked across the border can get “medicare for all”.

[elpadre]

methinks the public is unaware of what Medicare for all means and what the cost would be. And methinks most people do not realize Medicare is completely paid for by taxpaying workers of America who should reap the benefits of the program, which is not the case. Congress has been robbing our money for a long time.

[Antoninus]

"Do you support Medicare for all?"

YES! Of course!

"Do you support doubling your taxes for sub-par medical coverage, the bankrupting medical professionals, and no alternatives save those for which you have to pay huge additional premiums on top of your tax increases?"

What? Are you nuts?

The state of the world today.

[MMaschin]

Why didn't you include the part about the poll showing majority support for Obamacare, and the GOP tax reform only having 40% support? So Obamacare is more popular that the tax cuts? I don't think so, that is proof enough to me that the sample is completely biased. You should have included that info in your synopsis, so that people would know the poll is completely skewed towards the left.

I’m going to be forced into Medicare next year and I’m dreading it. I’m going to automatically become a second class citizen when it comes to health care. A lot of doctors will want nothing to do with me. I’ve never had a family doctor, but my wife convinced me to get one so I’d have a family doctor if I ever needed one once I’m on Medicare. I can only hope he doesn’t kick me to the curb when I turn 65. Anyone who thinks Medicare for all would be wonderful are absolutely insane. Then all of America would be second class citizens when it comes to health care, except of course, the ruling elite. We’d have rationed health care just like the Brits have with NHS.

80% of those wanting medicare for all do not realize medicare is not free to prople who have it and it does not pay for drugs. And it does not pay for all dr bills etc

Instead of teaching social justice in school, math and economics needs to be emphasized.

[maxwellsmart_agent]

This is just another bogus poll!

[48th SPS Crusader]

So 70 percent of people want long wait lists, mediocre care, less prescription choices and total Government control of their healthcare? Well hell move to some socialist country then!

[TADSLOS]

Uh huh...

Lol.

[GreyFriar]

We need to ask these people if they think veterans are getting good care from the Veteran’s Administration medical system. And when they acknowledge, hopefully, the problems with the VA, tell them to expect the same problems and MORE when ALL of their medical care is under the government.

[2ndDivisionVet]

People who support this should go tour a Veteran’s Affairs hospital and see what single-payer actually looks like.

[Behind the Blue Wall]

I actually think isn’t the ground that we should be fighting on. I was talking to my dad who’s a leftist and I said I don’t have a huge issue with this variant of leftism, but you have to make a choice: open borders or cradle-to-grave social welfare. Pick one or the other, but you can’t have both. He really had no response.

[Retvet]

Yeah, right. Wonder what select group of societal parasites they polled?

[onyx]

Never mind who will have to pay for it .... it’s FREE!

[publius911]

Seventy percent of Americans support 'Medicare for all' in new poll

Seventy percent of Americans are ignorant and insane.

THAT'S WHAT OBAMACARE WAS INTENDED TO BE...

but...

They spent 5 times the estimated cost to create it.
It was never finished.
The Database that tied it all together was never finished. Not evn close!
It was a total failure.
Like a vampire it has come back to fife.

Again, what's the definition of "insanity??"

[Bellflower]

After the Obamacare fiasco, I don’t think so. These “polls” are rediculously unbelievable.

[I want the USA back]

No they don’t. They had no idea what they were being asked in the poll.
When you call people and ask them questions like “Should all Americans get Medicare” they don’t have time to think, and even if they did, they don’t have anything in their heads that would enable them to answer sensibly. So they’re going to answer yes, because a no would sound like denying them something.
They are incapable of thinking the next logical thought: who pays?
Call up 1000 people and ask if they’re in favor of the government paying for cell phones, or meals, or TV service, or funerals, or anything. Of course they will say yes.

[GOPJ]

We need to face reality - some kind of health care change is necessary. But it should NOT be medicare for all - that's just one more way to get ripped off by doctors and hospitals and it won't do crap to make health care better ... or prevent 'healthcare' from ‘breaking the bank’...

Partner, u can tell when the Fake News MSM are putting out "Fake Polls".

The Far Left Liberal Communists/Socialists/Anarchists Rats will never ever get it!!!

I saw a poll today on Fox News and they had 51% of the folks they polled liked Obamacare and only 40% liked the President Trump Tax cuts put through with the Help of Congress. I said to myself somebody at Fox News will get fired for putting out Fake Polls like this one.

It is a pure Bravo Sierra Fake poll is all I can say!

Also, I was thinking that President Trump has bigger tax cuts than the Reagan Tax Cuts, W. Tax Cuts and Jack Kennedy Tax cuts.

The other thing I can honestly say is that these folks have never ever taken a solid "Economics" class period. They are probably uneducated is all I can think of at this time. Give us a break!
