Or were you thinking of all those getting Socialized government
medical
care (Medicare, State plans, Medicaid, federal employees, GIs &

It was a survey of those with private healthcare.

So "84% of the people were happy with the healthcare
that they have." is a lie on the face of it & does not even count
those without adequate insurance & probably not the dead either.

Here, you need to see another poll:

Which of these describes your health insurance costs?

Expensive - 27.3%
Fairly priced - 42.5%
Low cost - 25.5%
Don't know - 4.7%

Source: USA Today and Opinion Research Corp. Survey of 1,003 adults
Dec 4-7.


Why fix what isn't as broke as some would have you believe?

RD, it isn't like you to play games like this. Did you read the Opinion
Research survey you're quoting? It says that 79% of those surveyed don't pay
for their insurance themselves! Of COURSE they think it's "fairly priced."
Free or heavily subsidized is a VERY nice price. d8-)

"So "84% of the people were happy with the healthcare

I know, it is not a Democrat voting poll.

A New York Times/CBS News poll released last week shows, yet again,
that the majority of Americans support national health insurance.

Probably why Coakley swept to an overwhelming victory in Massachusetts
Tuesday.

No, they probably supported Brown because they haven't read past the first
1,000 pages gag! of the health reform bill and they're being fed
misleading baloney like what you posted above.



The poll, which compares answers to the same questions from 30 years
ago, finds that, "59% [of Americans] say the government should provide
national health insurance, including 49% who say such insurance should
cover all medical problems."

Only 32% think that insurance should be left to private enterprise.
]

Yep, probably why Brown lost so heavily on Tuesday.
