Contributing sentiments towards policy:

65% : Trump announced the pick in a statement released on Tuesday:I am very pleased to nominate Dr. Mehmet Oz to serve as the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) Administrator.
52% : Probably because he was the first doctor that Trump was able to name off the top of his head.
45% : Or is it simply that, instead of medicines that actually work, Medicare and Medicaid patients will get lifetime supplies of green coffee bean pills that do literally nothing.
43% : He also wants to privatize Medicare, because surely letting some massive corporations skim a bit off the top for literally no reason will really improve things for people who don't own those corporations or own stock in them.
37% : Because if you were playing "Family Feud" and the topic was "Snake Oil Salesmen Who Definitely Should Not Be In Charge of Medicare And Medicaid," he would probably be your very first choice.
17% : Donate Just Once!There really is something especially sinister about putting someone who has made a steady living just scamming the absolute shit out of credulous Americans in charge of Medicare and Medicaid, programs that our most vulnerable citizens, the poor, the disabled, and the elderly, literally rely on in order to live.
