Sometimes I do think the Democrats should just let Republicans ruin themselves on this issue. Make a fuss, make it clear you're worried about increasing health costs and are trying to stop it, but eventually, you might just have to let people experience the consequences of the party they elected.
The Democrats care about healthcare costs increasing like remember when Obama caved on the public option because he sold out to the insurance companies?

Actually, that was Joe Lieberman, not Obama if memory serves. And apparently it does.
According to Wikipedia[0]:
The public health insurance option, also known as the public insurance option
or the public option, is a proposal to create a government-run health
insurance agency that would compete with other private health insurance
companies within the United States. The public option is not the same as
publicly funded health care, but was proposed as an alternative health
insurance plan offered by the government. The public option was initially
proposed for the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, but was removed
after the independent US senator for Connecticut Joe Lieberman threatened a
filibuster.[1][2]
