"comment": "Yes, I think government based healthcare is the best way to provide healthcare. It is obvious that the open market is not able to provide for the social good, economic good or even provide good healthcare left to its own devices. Right now, it is entirely to problematic that people cannot get healthcare, there is little access to healthcrea nd healthcare is wildly expensive. We have nothing to show for it either, we have little good outcomes."

"comment": "Yes I do because I believe health insurance should be a right not a luxury, not everyone can pay insurance but everyone need it at some point in their lives so I think everyone should have the right to have insurance"

"comment": "Yes. I believe that it's part of the purpose of government to care for its citizens' safety and happiness, which includes having a healthy population. It's also cheaper for the people as a whole than private care."

"index": 4,
"comment": "I do support that. I find that everyone should be able to get the help they need without having to worry about paying for it. People should not die because they can not afford it."
},

"comment": "I do support it because it would force everyone to opt in and make the system cheaper and more efficient because of it, and most other countries have already done it and they seem to be getting along just fine."

"index": 8,
"comment": "I fully support the US government providing universal health care. American workers will not be able to compete in the global economy if they fall sick and cannot obtain health care due to its current prohibitive expense. Bearing this in mind, health care is not only a human right, but a national security issue."

"comment": "I’m in support of it as something the government provides but not if it’s the on choice."
},
{
"index": 10,
"comment": "I do support basic health insurance for the country's population as it should be considered a human right to have access to healthcare. I however would only agree to this if care can be administered in a timely manner."

"comment": "I wish the government would provide basic health insurance. I don’t understand how all these other countries can offer free healthcare to their citizens, but the US, which is supposed to be the greatest country in the world doesn’t offer anything close to it. Yes there is state funded Medicaid, but to qualify your income has to be so low it doesn’t make sense"

"comment": "No. Nothing in life is free and I think the Government is uniquely bad at running things. For the sake of quality it is better left in the private sector."
},
{
"index": 19,
"comment": "Yes, I support the government providing basic health insurance for everyone. Healthcare should not be controlled by for-profit corporations who have an incentive to deny care in pursuit of profit. Only governments can promote public good without pursuit of profit."
},
{
"index": 20,
"comment": "Yes, I highly support the government in providing basic health insurance for everyone. I believe having access to healthcare is a fundamental need, and shouldn't have to depend on income or job status. Universal healthcare will help ensure fairness for everyone."

},
{
"index": 24,
"comment": "Definitely. Every citizen deserves basic health insurance regardless of income. No one should have to decide between eating, paying rent or receiving medical care. Most develpoed nations already provide universal healthcare. Here in the US we are the ones behind everyone else"
},
{
"index": 25,
"comment": "The US is one of the only \"first world\" countries to not offer universal healthcare for their citizens, it's entirely stupid for the government to spend extravagant amounts of money on the military for no reason other than flexing on other countries. This country loves to overreach to other countries over caring for their own people, not even veterans who serve the grand military get fair treatment in our healthcare industry, absolutely ridiculous."

"comment": "Yes health insurance is insanely expensive. I can't even afford it. It's ridiculous at this point I would rather die than be in a lifetime of medical debt!"
},
{
"index": 27,
"comment": "yes of course. everyone deserves healthcare, and the same standard of care, without regard to class, status, income, sex, race, etc. that’s the best way - probably the only way - to ensure a healthy society"
},
{
"index": 28,
"comment": "I do because being healthy and having good dental hygiene ain't a privilege, it's a human right. Not everyone has the same genes, has had access to dental care, or has had the ability to sit at a cushy job their whole life; these individuals are likely going to have more issues with their health and teeth. It makes you feel like you do not matter. I am here to tell you that you can't hold a job if you are sick every day, no matter how much society expects it. Taking away healthcare is genocide!"
},
{
"index": 29,
"comment": "Yes, I support the government providing basic health insurance for everyone. It seems to work for other countries that implement it. It would alleviate a lot of debt and worry for people too."
},
{
"index": 30,
"comment": "I support basic health insurance for everyone because I believe that it is the job of the government to ensure that everyone has health insurance. Also, I believe that it will help lower-income households to have better health outcomes."

},
{
"index": 34,
"comment": "Absolutely! I don't understand how we can call ourselves (people in the US) a first world country when we don't provide healthcare for our citizens. I find it unfathomable that a majority of our citizens don't want to make sure that our neighbors have the ability to see a doctor when their sick. Ours is a sick society."

"comment": "I think that I support the government providing basic health insurance for everyone. I think that it is only fair for everyone to receive care no matter their income."
},
{
"index": 36,
"comment": "I support government provided basic health insurance because it would allow more people to access needed healthcare. With private and public insurance, alike, no one wins. Either some services are out of reach due to copay cost or they are not considered essential. I believe that not only health, but vision and dental insurances should be included, as well."
},
{
"index": 37,
"comment": "I do support it. I feel that basic health insurance will provide so much relief and support towards people and stave off so many from potential bankruptcy. That will lead to more people getting covered, hospitals not worrying if they'll be paid, and less medical debt which will allow more of that money to go into the economy through other methods."
},
{
"index": 38,
"comment": "I definitely think the government should provide healthcare for everyone. With the poor state of the diet for the majority of American citizens and the amount of taxes we pay, it is only fair. At the very least we need affordable healthcare to the normal person making $40,00-$50,000 a year individually. Like $200 a month."
},
{

"comment": "I do not support the government providing basic health insurance for everyone. This would be incredibly wasteful and expensive. The government is not well equipped to provide insurance in an efficient or quality manner."
},
{
"index": 43,
"comment": "Yes, I think the government should provide health insurance for everyone because it is a necessity, not a want. Similar to food and shelter, healthcare is a basic human right that everyone should have. Other countries have implemented this and have made it work. The United States should follow."
},
{
"index": 44,
"comment": "Yes, I support the government to provide basic health insurance for everyone. The infrastructure for this is already well established through Medicare. All we'll have to do is expand it in each state."
},
{
"index": 45,
"comment": "I strongly support the government providing basic health insurance for everyone because I think health insurance is a basic right every U.S. citizen should have.

"comment": "Yes, I do support it because some of the private health insurance offered buy private companies are too expensive and government-run Health insurance might be more affordable for lower income citizens."
},
{
"index": 48,
"comment": "Yes I support this because most people need preventive care. This type of care goes a long way to keep society healthy. It's better to prevent problems when they're small before they spiral out of control."
},
{
"index": 49,
"comment": "I do. I think it is a basic human right that every citizen should get healthcare with the taxes they pay. I do not think that right should extend to non citizens though and if medical care is needed, it is charged back to either the person or their government."
},
{
"index": 50,
"comment": "I would be in support of the government providing basic health insurance. This has to combine or relate to current health insurances that are out there, making it easier for those in need without work/income and those with jobs/working class people."
},
{
"index": 51,
"comment": "I think the government should provide basic health insurance for those who cannot afford it. Maybe they should because they would probably end up spending less given that people would have to participate in preventive care."
},
{
"index": 52,
"comment": "Yes I do support the government to provide health care insurance for anyone that does not have private health insurance, the cost is very high to seek medical care with out having any kind of health coverage, most people can not afford it."
},
{
"index": 53,
"comment": "I absolutely support basic health insurance for everyone. A wealthy, developed nation should not let its own citizens die or suffer because they have to choose between healthcare and basic needs like groceries and shelter. It's just common sense that this should be a basic human right where affordability is not a factor."
},
{
"index": 54,
"comment": "Yes. I have had difficulties with health insurance ALL of my adult life. I am under 21 (20), but my mom refuses to give me insurance as she says state provided medicaid would be better. I applied for medicaid after a psychiatric hospital visit and it took 3 MONTHS and was INCREDIBLY hard to fill out as I was getting over my psychosis. Now, I have moved states, I dont have medicaid again, and I am waiting for my coverage to get approved so that I can get a therapist and psychiatrist."

},
{
"index": 59,
"comment": "Yes, I do because the government's responsibility is to provide for all of its citizens.

"comment": "Yes, I think this would be incredibly helpful to the citizens who do not qualify for a life event and lose their insurance. It would be nice for citizens to be able to accept a bare minimum policy just in case of any type of freak accident. As someone who lost their job and didn't get life event qualified, this would greatly benefit me and my children."

{
"index": 62,

"index": 63,
"comment": "The government should implement a national healthcare system paid for by tax money. As things stand currently, a large number in the country have medical debt which in turn is the cause for many bankruptcies in the U.S. And it's not a matter of money either, because as a country, the United States already allocates more money to the medical sector than most first world countries yet our healthcare system is one of the worst in the first world. It's about allocating the money more efficiently."
},
{

Healthcare should be a a right to every human in my opinion."
},
{
"index": 73,

We pay taxes yet we get little in return and the government should help all."
},
{
"index": 82,

If the government were to provide realistically affordable health insurance to all without the cost of procedures, surgeries, or other specialist visits costing so much, I would support it. I feel that private health insurance already costs way too much per pay period in addition to the deductibles that must be met first."

Gaining health insurance through work traps many in a cycle where they cannot work due to health issues, and cannot treat those health issues due to a lack of insurance.

Forcing people to register and post with their real identities can cause real danger to those individuals if they post something that other people don't like. If a social medial company wants more genuine conversations on their platform, they can require real identity registration if they want to. That's their option.

That means that it's just like watching television in the privacy of one's home. One should be able to post what they want. Government can break confidentiality if someone uses the tool to break law. That should be sufficient."

"comment": "Yes I think this is a good idea. It would make people more accountable to be honest."
},
{
"index": 169,

"comment": "No I do not. I believe people have the right to anonymity with regards to social media (including from the platforms themselves as well as any corporation they are associated with).

"index": 314,
"comment": "Yes, I support requiring real name registration so people can not impersonate as someone else. There are too many creepy people online targeting young kids and teenagers. So we should be more strict and require authentication."
