You are overestimating how much flexibility people have with their health insurance. Many people cannot even qualify for health insurance. Its easy to get coverage when you are under 30. Just about any health insurance company will take you.

And its not like America is resisting the change. They are ASKING for it. This isn't just a coincidence. People were strongly against Clinton's attempt to change the healthcare system. Now they are all for the federal government stepping in. Do you really think that many people simply changed their mind for no good reason? Or is it more plausible that they were unsatisfied with what insurance companies were providing (or not providing)?

Seventy-two percent of those questioned in recent CNN/Opinion Research Corporation survey say they favor increasing the federal government's influence over the country's health care system in an attempt to lower costs and provide health care coverage to more Americans, with 27 percent opposing such a move. Other recent polls show six in 10 think the government should provide health insurance or take responsibility for providing health care to all Americans.

You keep saying this stuff.  Yet... I actually want sources that most people can't qualify for heatlh insurance.

Afterall you said health insurance companys drop you if you develop conditions....

which is illegal.

Also... that isn't really a swing in opinion.  Most people would be for the government giving out healthcare to everbody.

I know I do.

It's just most people hate the way the government plans to do it.
