>>With it is bad, but without it twice bad<<
Hmm. Off the cuff, applicable similar sayings might be
"You don't know what you've got till it's gone"
or
"Out of the frying pan, into the fire"
or
"A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush"
or
"Careful, what you wish for may come true"

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
