Poll: 32% Would Pay Higher Taxes To Provide Health Insurance for All

From Rasmussen:

Thirty-two percent (32%) of American adults say they’d be willing to pay higher taxes so that health insurance could be provided for all Americans. The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey found that 54% say they’re not willing to pay more in taxes.

Most Democrats (54%) are willing to pay higher taxes to expand health care coverage. Most Republicans (77%) are not. As for those not affiliated with either major party, 29% are okay with the higher tax bill and 60% are not.

My question is, why don't these 32% create and donate to private charities that will help people with health insurance? Why do they want to force the other 68% to allocate their money in the exact same way, and through the government?
