The reason many people are rightly worried about Bernie refusing to say how much money his plan cost
The reason many people are rightly worried about Bernie refusing to say how much money his plan costs is not because they’d be unwilling to support an expensive plan, but because it just looks bad to keep the information from the people. Upfrontness is just good. Either he knows and thinks we shoudn’t be privy to how much things cost (and that’s bad policy) or he just doesn’t know and doesn’t actually have the plan he claims to (and that’s no policy). It’s actually quite fair to demand that information and fair to be suspicious of him when he withholds it.As for keeping troops in Iraq, we actually know how much that costs because we’re paying for it now, so that’s not some mystery people are asking to know more about. -- source link
