If we added a tax of $1.00 for every man, woman, and child in this country, would that be enough to fund free healthcare in the U.S.?

Our household of 2 would be paying $2.00 a month more on our premiums, since it’s just the two of us. My daughter’s household would be paying $5.00 a month more.
Seems like a drop in the bucket to me, per household, but it would be ~316 million dollars in government revenue per month.
