"Center Right"? Not quite... when it comes to government health care

By GottaLaff

President Obama, it's time to be a little less reachy-outy. Who matters more, 3 Republicans or 59% of America? A CBS News/New York Times poll reveals that that whole "America is a 'center right' nation" is just one more example of myth-information.

The healthcare question reveals that Americans are much more likely to desire government-sponsored health insurance than they did in 1970.

HEALTH INSURANCE: PRIVATE ENTERPRISE VS. GOVERNMENT?

1979
Private Enterprise: 48%
Government - All Problems: 28%
Government - Emergencies: 12%
Don't know: 12%

2009
Private Enterprise: 32% (-16%)
Government - All Problems: 49% (+21%)
Government - Emergencies: 10% (-2%)
Don't know: 9% (-3%)

So there you have it. Private industry loses 16% and a full government healthcare solution gains 21%. A full 37% swing. Take note, Democrats.
