Can't access it from his profile, interesting.
As for the suggestion that Thompson’s murder should be an occasion to discuss America’s supposed rage at private health insurers, it’s worth pointing out that a 2023 survey from the nonpartisan health policy research institute KFF found that 81 percent of insured adults gave their health insurance plans a rating of “excellent” or “good.” Even a majority of those who say their health is “fair” or “poor” still broadly like their health insurance. No industry is perfect — nor is any health care model — and insurance companies make terrible calls all the time in the interest of cost savings. But the idea that those companies represent a unique evil in American life is divorced from the experience of most of their customers.
That's just a fucking lie. Someone paid for that result, or their methodology was to go to the stupidest part of trumpistan and ask people if they rate their policy good, or if they prefer socialism. There is no way that 81% of Americans think their insurance is excellent.
No, the survey results may very well be real. What the author, however, completely fails to understand is that the survey tells us nothing about what people actually think of the insurance industry since it asks the wrong question; 'are you happy with your policy?', not 'are you happy with the system?'. Not to mention the fact that most of the people asked never had to use their insurance fully.
It doesn't stop the author from making the idiotic assumption that the statistics somehow support his point, part of the reason why the article has been so ridiculed.
The implica of that question is, "are you happy with your policy (compared to other options available to you)"
