Best way to get inaccurate feedback from your constituents

Thursday, 23 July 2009 15:52

Representative Doug Lamborn sent an email survey out to those voters who opted in for this. One of the questions he asked was phrased in such a horrible manner as to certainly skew the results:

What do you think is a better solution to the health care issue?

-A free-market solution, which emphasizes lower costs and better service using the current health care system, and allows people to keep their current healthcare without government intervention

-A government run health care system similar to that of Canada’s or Britain’s, where taxes are notably higher, the quality of coverage will be lower, and the wait times to see a physician will skyrocket

-Unsure

This question is jumping to all sorts of conclusions about the various options being presented rather than presenting fair, honest questions.

True. I subscribe to his email updates, and watch his votes in Congress...he's about as far right-wing as they come.
