Summary
Polls show a majority blame insurance and pharmaceutical companies for high costs, denied claims, and access issues.
Only 44% rate U.S. health care quality as “good” or “excellent,” a 20-year low.
Support for government intervention is rising, with 62% favoring federal responsibility for universal health care.
Meanwhile, satisfaction with the Affordable Care Act has grown, with 54% approving.
Trump’s unclear health care overhaul plans are entering a polarized environment where Americans remain split on private versus government-run systems.
I mean, I generally do like my employer health insurance, but it’s also genuinely a really good plan that I’ve largely had zero issues or outright denials. (I do sometimes have to get my doctor’s office and insurance to talk to one another appropriately, but that’s just as much on the doctor).
But I would gladly give up my health insurance for a nationalized healthcare system. Not even a question.
