So, you're saying that 59% of the American public are too damn ignorant to realize how outrageously they've been screwed and lied to for decades by the private health insurance companies, and that they'd rather just remain that way because it feels "safer" to change nothing in the status quo?

Why am I not surprised? ;-)

I built my mother's fat old dog a ramp, because he can hardly climb the stairs any more, but he won't use the ramp! Nothing can persuade him to use it. He's scared of all innovations, and would rather continue just doing exactly what he's always done...struggling and suffering, and not getting up the stairs.

Sounds like a similar problem to your 59% to me.
