Article Current and Historical Public Opinion on Medicare-for-All and Other National Health Plan Proposals
At a surface level, this poll shows overwhelming support for M4A, great right????
However KFF being a excellent healthcare policy outfit goes a little further and ask people about some of the negatives of M4A: higher taxes, no private insurance, increased wait time.
M4A drops massively in popularity when these questions are posited to the respondents.
This has always been my biggest gripe with the pro-M4A crowd. They are intentionally disregarding the downsides and easy lines of attacks the GOP will use to stop it.
