Basically the Republican plans will cut taxes and have less revenue coming in to the government, but will lead to huge growths in GDP, wages, and jobs over the long run. Sanders plan will see a huge increase in revenue coming in to the government, but a substantial drop in GDP and wages.
The Tax Foundation is a shill for conservatives and large corporations. Their projections are based on what type of policy they want in place. Their Board of Directors are either former Republican congressmen or representatives of Koch Brother, Exxon-Mobile, Ely Lilly, etc.

This is not the question at all. If you are allowed to keep all of your own money then how much would you have to spend to make sure your food and medicine are safe; your insurance company actually has funds to pay claims; industry is not poisoning your air and water; your workplace is safe; your country is safe from attack by foreign powers; your travel in an aiurplane is safe; etc, etc , etc? That is the question.
