SSL depends on national agencies and orgs overseen by national agencies. If SSL is required, then whoever controls those agencies controls what's seen online.

I already cannot easily add a root CA for .onion addresses and then make my own certs there, without browsers screaming bloody murder.
I already cannot bypass cert errors for certain types of cert fails.
Tor onion sites, which are end to end encrypted, are considered "insecure" because we plebes cannot buy a "proper" EV ssl cert, like Facebook did.
Enforcement of SSL is just another way of controlling the user in name of "stupidity". Sure, the dumb click-anything users win, but anyone tech-savy loses freedoms.
