Yes, we are moving toward consensus of socialized medical coverage. Medicare is a good deal for our seniors. I think the next step is to offer Medicare as a choice and an alternative to private health care coverage. As you know, even private coverage is well liked, so it's not a high bar to clear in order to meet or beat existing coverage with Medicare. Adding a Medicare option when people are choosing a plan under the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) is discussed but hasn't made it past that.Interesting contrast, that leaves 66% that’s not positive about the coverage for people in general, which suggests there’s plenty of solidarity for a more social democratic system. I see in second link that‘s along the lines of 2/3rd feeling it’s the governments responsibility. That last part‘s wording triggers people like libertarians, but the government imo just happens to be the best candidate to organize what I see as a nation/community’s responsibility. Anything else seems like choosing to let (poor) people drown instead of helping without major personal risk. Thanks for the informative reply including links.
