How does already having your own insurance make this a bad thing? Just because it doesn't help you doesn't make it bad.
I don't have insurance and it doesn't help me, because I want there to be competition in the health care industry so that I can get a good deal that fits my needs (which is very little healthcare since I rarely go to the doctor and have a great immune system and have never been admitted to a hospital).
But instead I am forced to pay for an overpriced product that I don't need, which makes the super rich healthcare companies even richer due to a government-enforced monopoly.
Keep in mind that poor people have to pay taxes, too.
