Because of simple mathematics. He wants to give everyone over the age of 18 a thousand bucks a month. That's $12,000 per year for 240 million people. That's $2880000000000. $2,880,000,000,000. 2.9 trillion dollars. For perspective, the entire federal budget is just under four trillion dollars, and the GDP, the entire economic output of the nation, is $20 trillion. He wants to hijack a solid fifteen percent of the economy and give it away.

That's the problem with these Democrats, Warren and Yang especially. The smart Democrats never commit to figures, because once they do, everyone from left of center on right realize how unfeasible it is. No, these multi trillion dollar plans are never happening, because somebody actually has to pay for this stuff.
