The tricky part is explaining to everyone how this works. People need to understand how the tax bracket system works. It sounds like a relatively easy thing, but its crazy how many people have absolutely no understanding and still think they can get a raise that "puts them in the next tax bracket" and loses them money...
The best part is that even in their flawed logic, the person comes out ahead of where they are now with complete healthcare coverage, all their taxes paid, and $7.20/hr after taxes. I pointed this out on several people's posts about it on Facebook and got no response. About on par for their reactions.
