There is also the issue that nobody can really make sure the sums are adding up to what the government says it does, so whatever the government needs to pay for things like abortion, it could just say it got. The whole thing is about illusion of control, which will pacify people.

Why is the phrase, "Let them eat cake!" going through my mind as I read your post?
Sure. Your employees may get something out of the deal you offer them. However, there is one huge flaw in your logic. While you seemingly give your employees something, your plan to have taxpayers be able to decide where their taxes go is something else entirely. That would entail an actual transfer of funds from one group to another. It would also politicize the healthcare system in a radical way.
It is necessary to point out that you don't trust the government? You apparently believe that it can shift the numbers around no matter what people do.
Illusion on top of illusion.
