From the article:
That helps bolster my faith that the MAJORITY of Americans not only want reform but are willing to pay for it out of their own pocket! It is also a clear rebuke of the constant negative diatribe we hear from many members here in the Lounge.
Simply put, the VAST majority of conservative posters on THIS web site are out of touch with how the typical and MAJORITY of American's feel about health care. This constant flow of negative talk is possibly inspired by: Personal fear (disguised as National fervor), insecurity at loosing the election (depression), desperation (what if we loose AGAIN?), and a dose of good old fashioned "red kneckism".
Those armed with the truth and a valid argument have nothing to hide and welcome a logical and reasonable discussion of the various issues.

The TRUTH? You can't handle the truth!!
The question was, How much more are you willing to spend on your health insurance so that everyone can have health insurance.
The total WAS 60%. YES to some degree, NO matter how small that degree might be/
The breakdown was:
OVER$1500?-------------------3%
$1500-------------------0%
$1000-------------------5%
$ 500-------------------17%
$ 100-------------------35%
$ 0---------------------33%
,,,,,6% don't know
So I read that as EIGHT PERCENT would to be willing to spend a significant amount of money so ALL could have health insurance. SIXTY-EIGHT PERCENT would be will to spend between NOTHING and ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS A YEAR to help all have health insurance.
You read that poll wearing rose colored glasses, seeing only what you wanted to see
