Perhaps. But if I weren’t online I wouldn’t know how widespread the support of Luigi is.
Only 75% of people on employer healthcare plans are satisfied? A great many people aren’t on employer plans.
From the third link you provided:
For the first time in Gallup’s two-decade trend, less than half of Americans are complimentary about the quality of U.S. healthcare, with 48% rating it “excellent” or “good.” The slight majority now rate healthcare quality as subpar, including 31% saying it is “only fair” and 21% -- a new high -- calling it “poor.”

- bko 2y ago> The poll by CloudResearch found that 27% of U.S. adults expressed “moderate” or “a lot” of sympathy for Mangione. > A smaller but significant share of adults, 12%, said they were supportive of the decision to murder Brian Thompson, 50, who was shot in New York on Dec. 4. 12% is basically zero in this country. To give you a frame of reference, 14% of people think Obama is antichrist https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/1-in-4-americans-sympathize-with-luigi-mangione-ai-poll-reveals-why/ar-AA1we43d https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/1-in-4-americans-sympathiz... https://www.yahoo.com/news/12-million-americans-believe-lizard-people-run-country-184751427.html https://www.yahoo.com/news/12-million-americans-believe-liza...

Don’t know any other murderers who have 27% of the population having sympathy for them. 12% is not basically zero. https://www.thewrap.com/luigi-mangione-discourse-alarms-homeland-security-chief/ https://www.thewrap.com/luigi-mangione-discourse-alarms-home...
