The Republican presidential campaign has wound down to just three candidates who seem to have a shot at the nomination: Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, and Ted Cruz.
Each of these candidates has proposed a huge tax cut plan. Trump’s would cost $11.2 trillion including interest on the debt it’d create; Rubio’s would cost $8.2 trillion, and Cruz’s would cost $10.2 trillion, according to the nonpartisan Tax Policy Center. Rubio would increase the federal debt (currently about 73 percent of GDP) by more than 28 percent of GDP over the course of a decade, and Trump and Cruz would increase it even more.
Here are a few charts that explain just how big — and how regressive — these proposed cuts are.
