It's funny how people casually throw out how something has "conclusively" been proven and yet it's a hot debated contentious issue that 50% of people don't agree with.
Well gee, zo1, if it's been "conclusively" proven then it should be trivial to convince them to change their mind, right? Perhaps it hasn't been as "conclusively" proven as we've been led to believe.
- 0cf8612b2e1e 3y agoThe bar for conclusively proven relies upon the public to agree? Have you met the public?
- cycomanic 3y agoIt might be 50% in the US (although studies show that even in the US most (>60 % IIRC) people favor some form of public healthcare if asked in non-polarizing terms), but if you look at worldwide statistics countries that have publically funded healthcare have typically better outcomes at lower costs, which might not be "proven" in the strictest sense, but is pretty strong evidence.
