I mean 15 years ago we had people violently and negatively reacting to what became a fairly incremental step in Obamacare, all because people were worried they would lose their current health insurance. EVERYBODY hates health insurance and dealing with insurance companies. Patients hate it. Doctors hate it. Hell, most of the people that work at the insurance company probably hate it. Yet still, people were so worried that what Obamacare would bring would be worse than what they had, that they were scared to give up what they had. Scared that it would bring all the worst parts of socialized medicine from places like Canada and the UK (Long wait times for procedures! Less incentive for smart people to be doctors! Insertion of more government bureaucracy!). What do you think is different now, versus then, that you don't think that sort of instinctive fear of change would still be the primary reaction of a lot of people?
