Except most Americans are pleased with the healthcare they receive.

You’ll never hear this in the media, but the reason there isn’t sweeping change on the horizon is because a large majority of Americans are satisfied with their healthcare.

A majority even report being satisfied with their personal healthcare costs.

Except that..

> Seniors, Medicaid/Medicare Recipients Rate Coverage, Quality Most Positively

So, the people most satisfied are the ones with healthcare provided by the government, which is what many are proposing.

"Pleased" with your healthcare is a relative term. It doesn't mean you couldn't get better. I am pleased with my healthcare compared to the healthcare I used to have. But I'd go back to the public healthcare I had in the UK in a heartbeat.

And... How many times do we need to hear from these Medi* Recipients to keep the guvernment outta their medical plan.

I really think that we need to stop listening to attitude and perceptions' based studies, and focus on cold hard numbers ($).

People don't understand the system - not by a long mile and will swear up/down/sideways that they do...We need to take a more analytical approach and look at the numbers.

You can't use this poll to support the private system. Only 51% of the respondents who have a private insurance are satisfied with the personal healthcare costs. Versus 70% for people who are under Medicare or Medicaid. If anything, this is an argument for Medicare for all.

Amen

Boomers are satisfied with their Medicare.
