So making people pay more is not losing them anything? Is that what you're saying? It's a little counter-intuitive.
Perhaps this is similar to Marxists Revolutionaries' attitude that the worse things get for people, the better the chances for revolution.
If we are all bleeding to death in the street because we couldn't pay our health insurance we might be pretty highly motivated to do some revolting.
Mostly we act like frogs slowly being brought to the boil, but this could perhaps jolt us out of that passivity.
