10. You are forgetting another major tax source

Warren is currently putting the details on her plan to fund Medicare for All, which would be possibly the major expense and addition to the federal budget.

A key part of that plan is to tax corporations for the current amount they are paying towards employee healthcare.
That alone would cover a huge part of the costs for MfA. THAT is an easy amount of money to account for since those corporations report it as a deduction on their taxes, there's no hiding it.

And, I might have to run soon, so let me say thanks for an interesting discussion.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden
