The analysis from the American Action Forum puts the price tag for the sweeping policy proposal between $51 trillion and $93 trillion over 10 years.

But like. You just tax billionaires and stop wars and that's like a lot of money and also things like such as the value of polar bears and a $15 minimum wage have to be factored into the accounting. Conservative media is just like sooo obsessed with her and loves to leave out the facts.

Keep in mind the entire 2020 Democratic field endorsed this


But will also mention that the tax cuts didn't work because we didn't reduce spending

it's a small price to pay, because you know, we're all just going to die in 12 years otherwise.

I think that's my favorite part of this. They're all forced to take a poison pill out of fear of dying
