Either the family has to pay it, or (as the example implies) some other taxpayer will have to pay a large chunk of the guy's costs in addition to the taxpayers's own $20,000 costs!
So, again, liberals, where do you expect families to find this extra $20,000/year to pay for the health care coverage you are forcing on them?
Example 2. Married employee with dependents. Taxpayers B and C are married and file a joint return for 2016. B and C have two children, D and E. In November 2015, B is eligible to enroll in self-only coverage under a plan offered by B’s employer for calendar year 2016 at a cost of $5,000 to B. C, D, and E are eligible to enroll in family coverage under the same plan for 2016 at a cost of $20,000 to B. B, C, D, and E’s household income is $90,000. Under paragraph (e)(3)(ii)(A) of this section, B's required contribution is B's share of the cost for self-only coverage, $5,000. Under paragraph (e)(1) of this section, B has affordable coverage for 2016 because B’s required contribution ($5,000) does not exceed 8 percent of B’s household income ($7,200). Under paragraph (e)(3)(ii)(B) of this section, the required contribution for C, D, and E is B's share of the cost for family coverage, $20,000. Under paragraph (e)(1) of this section, C, D, and E lack affordable coverage for 2016 because their required contribution ($20,000) exceeds 8 percent of their household income ($7,200).
What you have posted is an example showing that C, D & E would be exempt, because the cost of the employer-provided insurance exceeds 8% of their household income.

Oh my god. Is that how fringe website's get their info? From an example used to clarify rules?
Thread title says: "Cheapest Obamacare Plan Will Be $20,000 Per Family."
Hypothetical example says: "The annual national average bronze plan premium for a family of 5 (2 adults, 3 children) is $20,000."
When you figure out the difference between a "cheapest" plan and an "average" plan, then you will have risen to the conceptual level of a third grader and we will no longer be obligated to call you names and laugh at you behind your back.
And the fines for not buying that "$20,000" policy are between $695 & $3,000 depending upon your Net Income.
Someone has to pay the difference
