Hey, Americans! Do you want free stuff? To this, America resoundingly answered, “Do you think I’m an idiot? Of course I want free stuff.”
It’s like asking the kids if they want a pool. You bet, dad!
OK, so we’ll take it out of your allowance and clothing and food, and stick with oatmeal for most meals.
Suddenly nobody wants a pool.
They should ask people if they want free medicare if it means another 15% of their paycheck.
And you believe this push poll?
Polls are propaganda devices.
In a word, no.
Fake poll.
Oh, how the dems will use this in the runup to November...
Impoverished illegals won't be asked for a Medicare co-pay, this is where Paul Ryan's entitlement reform comes into play. We'll be kicked up from a 20% co-pay to a 40% co-pay to smooth things out.
A more alarming and much more easily verified statistic:
49% of the country is below average intelligence.
Only idiots could propose this. And unfortunately there are many in America today.
I believe it, they polled a leftist college and only got less than half of democrats in favor of abolishing ICE and nearly 80 of republicans against the idea?
I am more in favor of a gradualist approach, where we reduce the age of medicare eligibility, reducing the impact on businesses paying for older americans healthcare, thereby increasing employment of older middle-age americans who have been largely shut out of the job market.
The age of burdening employers with healthcare expenses for their employees should end as no one else in the world really does it.
If its free - everyone would vote for Santa Claus.
Except of course it’s not really free - but fake pollsters don’t tell people about it.
If they think medical care is expensive now, wait until it’s ‘free.’
I’m surprised It isn’t closer to 100%, I guess it depends on how the question is worded.
It's what McCain may be remembered for, the thumbs down.
Reuters is not credible. It’s run by a fascist gang of drunks and liars.
Hmmm. Same pollsters who said HRC would win?
I think younger folks think Medicare is free.
Medicare costs me $134 per month taken from my SS check.
Then to cover med plan (part D) it’s another $34.
I also have a level F medigap policy for $199/month (the money we saved when I came off my husband’s employee insurance, which turned out well), but very worth it to me because I have MS and some times that incurs expensive tests. The F plan, so far, has handled everything that Medicar doesn’t. Medicare without a gap policy is a regular 80/20 plan, if I’ve read the policy right unless you have a gap plan.
So Medicare would be like Canada where you can wait up till 6 months, sometimes longer, for a needed procedure
I hear about the Medicare programs where they pay for everything, but I think that is only if you use their doctors which probably works fine for folks without a lot of health issues.
And how many of those polled have actually had to deal with Medicare??
70% support “Free Sh**”. This is Idiocracy.
This is another bogus poll!
