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.

    You don’t want universal healthcare but you agree that tying health insurance to a private company is awful.

    So what’s your hangup? You don’t want your taxes to go up? If so, I can assure you it won’t be $12000/year.

      I want health insurance from a private company of MY choice. I don’t want to choose my job based on what health insurance they provide. Right now nobody reports to me - there is no incentive anywhere for me.
