Two-Thirds of Americans Support Government-Guaranteed Healthcare
A recent Pew Research survey revealed that roughly two-thirds of Americans believe the government should provide healthcare coverage for all citizens. While opinions are split on how to achieve this, 35% favor a single-payer system, and 31% support a mix of private and government programs. This survey arrives as over 22 million Americans anticipate higher healthcare costs, particularly with the expiration of Affordable Care Act subsidies. Furthermore, political divisions persist, with Democrats largely supporting government-provided healthcare, while Republicans are more divided on the issue.
