In January, the Progressive Policy Institute released an analysis of the costs of the leading Democrats’ policy proposals and found that democratic socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders’ (I-VT) far-left policies were by far the most expensive, costing around $50 trillion over ten years, effectively doubling the size of the federal government.
The group, which describes itself as “radically pragmatic,” found that Sanders’ policies would cost taxpayers more than $15 trillion more over ten years than the next most radical Democratic candidate (Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren’s $35 trillion in proposals) and $42 trillion more than the third most expensive Democrat (former South Bend Mayor Pete Buttigieg’s $7.6 trillion).
