It's not really different. Public option is back door Universal. Makes no sense any other way. You create an "insurance" Co to compete with private Co's. The public Co enjoys full financial and political support form the Government, and in time "outcompetes" private companies and puts them out of business. That doesn't jibe with the real world experience of the Medicare Advantage plans. And of course just by definition "universal" and adding an "option" are two different things. We could have universal without a public plan... and we could have a public plan without universal. Apples and oranges. Certainly to someone answering a poll question.
