Extremely good point.
Once the government is required to cover everybody, they'll use Congress to pass laws keeping costs down. If you think they're nazi about things like smoking, drinking, other drugs, trans fats, seat belts...etc, just wait until the insurance industry doesn't need to spend billions of dollars, over decades, to pass these oppressive laws. They'll be no more middleman, and people will freely give up these liberties, because it will lower taxes.
Taxes, and other required payments, like insurance, are reasons the poor and the middle class have a hard to moving up the ladder, to become rich.
