According to a new study, Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s radical Green New Deal would cost over four times the national debt – coming in at a whopping $93 trillion.

Breitbart reports the American Action Forum, which is run by former Congressional Budget Office director Douglas Holtz-Eakin, said that their study showed the enormous price tag would have a “lasting and damaging impact” on the American economy.

Democratic Sen. Ed Markey, who co-sponsored the bill with AOC, tweeted that the study had “artificially inflated” the cost of the Green New Deal.

He added, “Putting a price on a resolution of principles, not policies, is just Big Oil misinformation.”

By the way, that $93 trillion breaks down to about $600,000 per household.
