Diagnosis Confusion
February 23, 2010 - by
The N&O/WTVD poll on health care left me totally confused.
The poll, done by Mason-Dixon, “found that 51 percent of registered voters in North Carolina think Congress should not change the U.S.
But then the story went on: “The poll asked voters how they fell along a spectrum of reform possibilities, from major overhaul to no change at all. Twenty-seven percent of respondents said they wanted a major overhaul with guaranteed coverage, while 40 percent wanted to control costs and expand availability.”
That is, 67 percent wanted changes in the health-care system.
So take your choice. Either 51 percent don’t want change – or 67 percent do.
