Everyone would agree they'd like to pay less for health care. Much fewer would agree with specific proposals purporting to achieve that. Many people understand that the accumulation of political interventions over the past ~60 years are the primary thing driving costs up.

The only thing wrong with your narrative is that private insurance has been dominant for the past 60 years. And THAT is driving up costs. (See: Luigi). In fact, it would be easy to demonstrate that government investment in research has done vastly more than the private sector w.r.t. vaccines and immunization and regulations. Oh no, I said the scary "r-word", I hope you didn't run and hide in your libertarian safe space.
