I believe as well that many of those who are currently happy with their health insurance will become less happy if cost increases are not controlled soon.
My premiums are about 2.5 times what they were 15 months ago (and I can't change providers due to a pre-existing condition). Right now, I can still afford to pay them, but I won't be able to if they continue in that direction, and I think a lot of people could see themselves similarly priced out of their current insurance in the not-too-far-off future.
