    At least 50% voted racism. There is no hiding behind the “Elites”.

      Even the majority of republican voters want health care reform. It’s a cross-party issue, for sure. Trump even lied and said he had some beautiful, magical healthcare plan that’ll fix everything. People who believed him are clearly still idiots of course.

        I am sick of this bullshit argument. The ‘majority’ of Republican voters can say whatever they want, but they vote for a party whose core values are against healthcare reform and will even take it away if another party tries to implement it. For 20 years or more voting republican has meant supporting racism and corporate interests above all else. Republican voters are getting exactly what they voted for. Stop trying to make them sound like victims.

          It isn’t bullshit per se. It is by and large what they want when polled, but they’re too fucking stupid, too hung up on single issue voting, or too easily misled and naive and think the awful people they keep voting for will somehow not fuck them over some day

        Follow the money. Find out which politicians resist healthcare and you’ll find who’s getting paid to resist it.

      I’m not referring to votes, but basically every poll or survey that asks people about these ideas. Most Americans generally agree with and want universal healthcare.

      Also, a lot of voters are single- or few-issue voters. With limited choices, some will just vote anyways closest to their beliefs. That doesn’t necessarily mean they agree with the full package.

        And yet sweet racism/homophobia keeps them from demanding universal healthcare.

      You are ignorant on this issue. Please do better before making generalized prejudice statements.
