2T is indeed a big number but its dwarfed by the cost of healthcare. Keep in mind that's over 18 years. We spend more than that every year in the US. Apparently Warren's plan calls for 20.5 trillion in spending over the next decade and that's with some optimistic assumptions on cost reduction. None of this necessarily means we shouldn't do it. Healthcare is expensive, but certainly many countries do have more of the cost covered by the government, but you can't see a big number and assume that was paid and assume it would pay for healthcare
