Summary
A Gallup poll shows 62% of Americans believe the government should ensure universal healthcare coverage—the highest support in over a decade.
While Democratic backing remains strong at 90%, support among Republicans and Independents has also grown since 2020.
Public frustration with the for-profit healthcare system has intensified following the arrest of a suspect in the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson, reportedly motivated by anger at the industry.
Recent controversies, including Anthem’s rollback of anesthesia coverage cuts, and debates over Medicare privatization highlight ongoing dissatisfaction with the system.
36% of the eligible voting population did not vote.

I am not a mathematologist, but I’m pretty sure 36 is less than 62.
I thought I’d read it was higher, guess I am mistaken.
36+62=98 what did that last 2% do lol?
Not sure if I’m getting wooshed here, but in case you’re serious:
You’re adding percentages of two different groups
It’s nonsensical to add 62+36 and wonder about the “missing” 2
Nah, I just fucked up and now will have to live with the shame lol. Thanks for the correction though.
