Bernie is an ideolog. All of his ideas come from a socialist ideology that is not anchored in reality. What does he propose?

https://berniesanders.com/issues/how...s-major-plans/

-College for All and Cancel Student Debt. Cost $2.2 trillion.

-Housing for All. Cost $2.5 trillion.

-Universal Childcare/Pre-K. Cost $1.5 trillion.

-Green New Deal. Cost $16.3 trillion.

-Medicare for All. ???

Bernie's website gives no estimate but most experts predict at least $34 trillion in additional federal spending over its first decade in operation. That’s more than the federal government’s total cost over the coming decade for Social Security, Medicare, and Medicaid combined, according to the most recent Congressional Budget Office projections.

There is one thing for sure and Sanders freely admits it. Taxes will go up.
