Of course not everyone will be happy with the way it's going if they have to pay a little more, because everyone is thinking "Hey, that's my money" and not "This will help a poor family get health care if they need it."
But the fact remains that health care and access to a doctor if needed without putting your family in financial ruin to save your child/your own life is what everyone deserves. The change had to be made at some point. Better now, than later when more people put themselves into poverty because of injury or general health concerns.

And again, no one is arguing against this idea. It's how we go about doing it that we disagree on.
