    I find this poll interesting compared to some of the others because it’s clear they let a lot of people choose undecided instead of forcing them to make a choice like some of the others.

    Lol at how many people who are definitely voting for Trump don’t like saying so if they can avoid it.

    Does anyone have any insight on why Bernie polls so low with white women, but Biden has the most support? That seems... backwards.

    Some notes on Medicare Advantage

    Medicare Advantage, also known as Medicare Part C, is privatized Medicare. It’s popular, and it sucks bigtime and I hate it. For this reason, some good people believe it represents the greatest threat to single-payer. I’m not sure I’m one of them, but I’m sympathetic to their pain. I see it along four basic points:

    • Medicare Advantage is bad for patients: it sings sweetly to you until you need to use it, when it becomes as byzantine and repressive as the worst non-Medicare private insurance plan (in fact, becoming ill or getting injured is a strong predictor of switching from Advantage);
    • Medicare Advantage is bad for providers: it creates waterfalls of paperwork, delays in authorizations, and lower reimbursements than normal Medicare;
    • Medicare Advantage is bad for the public: it opens us up to massive cases of corporate (always corporate, never personal) fraud and abuse;
    • And Medicare Advantage is just generally bad: it is an exercise of an ideology utterly opposed to public investment in public wellbeing, and seeks to siphon off public money into private coffers by any means necessary.

    Biden is the nice guy that’s friends with Obama and worked with Hillary.

    Bernie is a loud mansplaining sexist who did everything he could to destroy Hillary Clinton and ruin her chances of winning.

    White supremacists routinely commit mass murder but antifa should be a terrorist organization.
