The correct answer is: 2/3's.
Sorry, I meant for this to be a quiz, and after it went up as a ballot, I couldn't get the self edit function to work, so couldn't get it off again. My mistake.
Voted : 3/4
I went 3/4. Still, far too many.
(it amazes me more every year that HEALTH is not available for practically free to all citizens.. even the illegal ones, I mean it's HEALTH. If you monkeys can't see why everyone's health is important to everyone else then Yeah, okay, I admit it, I hope we get a plague and it hits your town first, since natural selection's obviously not working out anymore :

Just a guess
I think adopting universal healthcare provokes anxiety in some people (by which I mean those who can already afford it) based on two main reasons. First, that it somehow means the end of private healthcare (?) and thus the quality of healthcare would drop for everyone. And second, that it infringes on people's right to be greedy--or to use the politically correct term: "free-market capitalism." I'm not sure I'll ever fully understand how someone can put money ahead of something as fundamental to our lives as our health.
