New poll: 70% of Americans support Medicare For All

According to this poll, that's nearly 85% of Dems and 52% of Repugs. And yet "centrist Democrats still intent on appealing to moderates who they believe want to preserve the for-profit health sector—one that costs Americans $3.4 trillion per year while delivering worse outcomes than universal healthcare systems like those in the United Kingdom and France—are actually alienating the vast majority of voters." 

Why? They desperately want the corporate money, so despite reality they at best repeatedly delude themselves and at worst know the facts and are so greedy they just don't give a shit about what we the people want. In either case we the people lose yet again to corporate interests. That's why we must primary every one of those corporate lackeys in the Dem Party and replace them with progressives that commit to policies that actually help us, like Medicare For All. Anything less is selling out once again and we're tired of it.
