Yes, rage. So much rage they either don't show up to vote or vote against universal healthcare candidates. Can you feel the rage?
You’re assuming they’re rational actors. I can tell you, with experience, there are people who hate the healthcare insurance industry and are too propagandized / stupid to actually do the things needed to change it.
I'm not assuming they are rational. In fact the evidence is quite clear that they aren't. Voting in the first place, and voting for pro universal healthcare candidates would make them more rational.
The vast majority of people think voting will change the paradigm, don't understand their electoral system, and absolutely do not want to learn. It has nothing to do with if they hate the industry or not.
