"What portion of a families income do you think could reasonably be spent on health care?"

I think about the same percentage as is spent on income taxes should be the upper limit. It is clearly immoral IMHO to tax over 10% of income, so that should be a good upper limit for most situations. Most people could live on 72.35% of their income.
