  37.  @mrjollyguy25  , and how is California working out? If Bernie is so popular why isn't he polling better? Even at that there are many flaws with the polls you cite 1. Consider each poll A: If medicare for all is popular than why than close to 80% of voters in Colorado said no? B: That poll was before the GND was released C: And it is being passed at state levels. You have one here D: How much? Saying "tax the rich more" is vague E: I can't commit here as I have not read that poll 2. Being popular does not mean the best system. For example, taxing the rich more can be considered mob rule. What if the majority wanted slavery back? Should we pass it? This is why we have standards. 3. Polls are typically unreliable as they are vague questions on complex issues being asked to people who are not experts on them. If you asked random people about the GND and then just polled scientists and engineers which poll would you trust more? Asking people who are not informed on the issues their opinion is not reliable. When more information opinions change. As said in this article, polls are a snapshot, not a forecast. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/howcan-a-poll-of-only-100/ You point to polls which is all you have. You don't have any other hard evidence. Point to polls with vague questions that are the opinions of non-experts is not reliable. Consider the scenario if you polled people about M4A and showed them the cost, or showed them the tax rate, or give them a semester's worth of courses on the issue of healthcare. I bet you the results of the polls will change. The major problem with the far left (Bernie supporters) is that they grossly oversimplify complex issues. When pressed on the issues they resort to talking points. In your case you are resorting to polls as if we should dictate policies on the opinions of non-experts as opposed to actual logical and reasoning.

  39.  @mrjollyguy25  , your first link does not work. But as for "experts" who were they? What were their credentials? And why do they support something? What do they have to gain? Again, we need more. That makes polls unreliable. As for Bernie being electable, again, opinions change when more information is given. Bernie has not been attacked by the RNC. How is he going to explain how private insurance will be illegal? How will he explain higher taxes on everyone? The town hall he did in Fox did not serve him well. When pressed on why he didn't donate some of his money he vilified the hosts. As for the GND it is an online poll. Many problems exist with online polls and phone polling. You can't see the person's reactions, you can't get their reasoning, you can't actually know who you are polling. Someone may claim to be for one party but really isn't. You don't know their income level, education level, etc. In the article it says that the GND is covered more by conservative media and low and behold, support for the viewers drop. How much do democrat supporters actually know of the GND? At this point I feel very little. Again, you can't know that based on a simple online poll. Bernie's approval rating is from his state. There are many factors for that. I have seen that approval rating poll. It was only from the state and there is a correlation between state population and approval rating. For example, the top 4 senators on that list were from Vermont and Wyoming, the two smallest states in the union. "Colorado is a special case. Their constitution bans public funding to go to abortions. Colorado is very pro-choice, so many pro-choice organizations that had strong support among progressives opposed the single-payer bill. The problem was the bill was set in stone and not able to be adjusted later. I would have opposed this bill as well." What does abortion have to do with single payer? The ban is already there. They know no matter the law single payer would not cover abortion. That is a very poor reason to oppose it and shows the ignorance of the people if that was their reasoning. Also, saying the bill can't be adjusted is simply not true. Top down government is hardly the solution. Slavery was about human rights and allow humans to be free. That is completely different than something as complex as healthcare. Healthcare, like education, domestic laws, etc. should be handled at the state level. State rights are important in this nation and allows our diverse nation to thrive. To me those who oppose state rights fall in one of three camps 1. They are ignorant and don't understand the reasoning behind state rights 2. They are lazy and as opposed to doing work themselves they want others on the outside to do it 3. They are fascist and want to enforce what they feel is right on others None of those three are good.
