I'll go further than that...I'd gladly support a moderate tax hike if it meant we could have a true single-payer health system. With almost all health insurance plans, you pay a pretty steep premium, and usually receive crappy coverage. I'd gladly do away with paying paying health insurance premiums, deductibles, and co-pays, and pay more in taxes, if it meant that we would have a true single-payer system.
