A new Gallup Poll found that a 58 percent majority of American adults support replacing the Affordable Care Act with a federally funded system of universal coverage. Such a policy is similar to the single-payer, “Medicare for all” plan 0f Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders, whose campaign has increased the popularity of a single-payer system.
A move to universal coverage to replace the current very, very complicated and expensive private-sector-state-federal health-insurance “system” is starting to look increasingly possible in the next few years.
