What if the $5.8 Billion Were Spent on Health?
The $5.8 billion could have been spent on:
1,343,837
employees paying for their healthcare contributions for a year.
This year's campaigning
could help Americans
and their families pay for the
minimum obamacare
tax as it increases
over the years.
The money would cover:
INDIVIDUALS
61,052,631
People paying the minimum
Obamacare tax in
2014
.
17,846,153
People paying the minimum
Obamacare tax in
2015

8,345,323
People paying the minimum

FAMILIES
