What average family? Our household (2 people) gets $3000/month and we
are on the edge of disaster!

My calculations (as an amateur) are based on about $2000/month per
household. Assuming 90 percent of 115 million US households would
need it, that would amount to roughly $2.5 trillion needed
annually. At present, direct Government outlay for basic 'welfare'
programs is at minimum $.5 T, much of which would be 'saved'.
That does not include Social Security, $0.7 T. The plans I have seen
eliminate Social Security and also welfare. $2,000/month per household
would be more than the average Social Security benefit, which is $1,300.
I think $2,000 is too much to start with, given today's technology.
