NEW POLL: Only 10% Of Americans Favor System Where Private Health Insurance ‘Abolished’

On Tuesday, The Hill-HarrisX released a new poll on the public perception of various kinds of health care.

While health care is always a hot topic, the 2020 Democratic presidential race has served to magnify the issue, with candidates like Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) very publicly pushing government-run systems that would eliminate private insurance. Other Democratic candidates, such as Mayor Pete Buttigieg, have hedged, arguing instead for a hybrid system that wouldn’t eliminate private insurance entirely – at least at the start.
