ChatGPT

Very strongly agree

Yes, but I prefer switching to a single payer healthcare system

MMT proponents generally support increased government spending on social programs, including healthcare. They believe that the government can create money to fund programs without causing inflation, as long as there is unused productive capacity in the economy. A single-payer healthcare system would be in line with MMT's emphasis on the government's ability to fund large-scale programs, and many MMT supporters advocate for a single-payer system.

Strongly agree

Yes

Modern Monetary Theory (MMT) proponents generally support increased government spending on social programs, including healthcare. MMT argues that the government can create money to fund programs without causing inflation, as long as there is unused productive capacity in the economy. However, MMT does not specifically dictate which programs should be funded, so the level of agreement may vary among MMT supporters.

Agree

Yes, but only increase for the elderly and disabled

While MMT proponents generally support increased government spending on social programs, including healthcare, they tend to advocate for more comprehensive social programs. Increasing funding only for the elderly and disabled may be seen as a step in the right direction, but not as comprehensive as MMT supporters would prefer. Therefore, the level of agreement may vary among MMT supporters.

Disagree

No, and each state should decide their own level of coverage

MMT proponents generally support increased government spending on social programs, including healthcare. They believe that the government can create money to fund programs without causing inflation, as long as there is unused productive capacity in the economy. Therefore, they would likely disagree with not increasing federal funding for Medicaid and leaving it to the states to decide their own level of coverage.

No, and abolish Medicaid
