Meet Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez

[danielpalos]

Today's most popular American Socialist. I say drop her off in some Socialist country like Venezuela and see how long it takes her to beg to come home. Let her experience what she it trying to pawn off on America. Oh yeah, and send Bernie Sanders with her.

/----/.She would simply say the wrong socialists are running Venezuela.

Yeah but she is to stupid to realize there no 'right' socialists.

we just need better management.

Yeah socialists need to be 'managed'....LOL!!!

like capitalism, doesn't.

nobody takes the right wing seriously about economics.

Capitalism died in 1929. Socialism has been bailing us out ever since.

BISS doesn't count.

that is all the right wing has. i have good arguments, unlike the right wing.

All you have are arguments with no facts...in other words BS BISS

No. What you call socialism is in fact Economic Interventionism.

not sure why; using socialism to correct for capitalism's market failures or inefficiencies, is what socialism is best at.

 

[my2¢]

Never seen or heard of her before an hour ago on these pages. Not sure what media you're all following but you need to stop it, it'll drive you nuts if not already there.

Capitalism causes inequity because those who perform better get more money. That is not a failure it is in line with human development. Humans will not work collectively because there is no monetary incentive. After all, money is the reward society bestows on those who contribute. I ask socialists to PERSONALLY give half their money to those who have less or don't work and guess what? 0 takers so far. BUT they have no trouble trying to make ME feel guilty for KEEPING my money!! P.S. Can daniel please stop with his funnyboys? Hell if you have something to say post it.

Yeah I was thinking the same thing, it is the curse of a 'news junky' like me.

I think she is 27 or 28 years old only been out of college for a few years and has no real idea of how the world outside of school really works. This seems to be the problem with so called higher education they teach you a lot of things but not how to deal with life in the real world.

In fairness, nothing prepares you for real life, except, real life.

How did she get elected? She knocked off a Big Fish of the Dems. It might be good for a hoot and a laugh but with Crazy Bernie campaigning with her and "Progressive" money behind her, this could snowball drastically.

I gather that her district is pretty far Left and were also getting tired of the same ol', same ol' from the Democratic Party as it is or was. You have to wonder how long that "Progressive" money is going to last if the Dems do not do well in 2018 or 2020. What if they're still the minority party in the House, Senate, and WH? What then?

Now I know it could go the other way and the Dems have a resurgence with socialist policies and take back any or all of those 3 entities, maybe we're in for another sharp turn to the Left. I'd be surprised though, and I could see a fiscal disaster looming if that happens, but well, you get the gov't you deserve.

As for Ms OC and other young people clamoring for free everything, one hopes some of them will grow up enough to realize you eventually gotta pay for what you get and we're running out of road for can-kicking. I feel bad for them cuz they're the ones who will get stuck with the bill and the bad economic times that will come with it. And they don't even know it yet.

As the quote often attributed to Margaret Thatcher goes the problem with socialism is that you eventually run out of other peoples money.

She needs to get to congress and learn the job.

Capitalism has a natural rate of unemployment not a natural rate of not wanting to make money under Any form of Capitalism.

And, it is not Your money if we have Any problems in our Republic. That is why Congress has the Power to Tax.

Any problems, right wingers?

Yes and it makes everyone equally miserable.

Socialists create 'problems' then take other people's money to 'solve' the problems they created. The government 'administrators' take the largest part of the money collected to 'solve' the created problem which, magically, never seems to go away. Socialist Democrats are among the richest on Capitol Hill.

The old "it just wasn't implemented correctly".

You guys have me worried she could be a political force. I mean, guys, you're America, what the f...

The embarrassment the American moderate Left should be expressing over the new socialist bloom is instead philosophized away in dirty semantics or context arguments or outright denial in the glaring face of the truth that American socialism is on the rise. It's largely a product of hatred for our President and his removal at any cost, even seemingly if it costs us everything. Many of us have called the Left out on it around the Web, and so far the responses are largely the same, " . . . but, but, socialism is . . . ?"
