Universal healthcare is actually popular in the US. Pretty sure most polls show a majority want it. And one thing you have to do when determining how popular universal healthcare is you have to subtract out responses from the over 65 crowd. You do that because they are the demo most opposed to universal healthcare but they are also demo where most everyone is already on universal healthcare (Medicare). Subtract out their wildly hypocritical opinions and universal healthcare is wildly popular.

It’s just that liberal democracy never actually delivers what people want.
