Yeah but that tiny % of healthcare spending is enough to fund a lot of other stuff. Don't get thrown off by the orders of magnitude: a small fraction of a big number is still a big number. Imagine what $2.7B could do for transit or housing or relocating migrants or student loan debt relief or wildland firefighter pay raises or invasive species remediation. Hell, imagine what even 1% of $2.7B could do for independent journalism or the arts.
