Socialist Darling Ocasio-Cortez: Socialize Medicine will be Cheap because of Fewer Funerals! – Video
Freedom's Lighthouse ^ | August 9, 2018 | Brian

Posted on 08/09/2018 7:28:44 AM PDT by Federalist Patriot

Oh my!

The darling of the Democrats - Socialist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez - tells CNN's Chris Cuomo that Socialized Medicine would actually be less expensive for the Government because people won't have to pay for funerals! Uh, bless her heart!

It is frightening that there are actually people in power who are this stupid. Flat-out stupid. Basically, she has no answer for how the Socialists (Democrats) will pay for their pipe dreams - at least not an answer that people will accept. The truth is that it would take massive tax increases on EVERYONE - not just the rich - to even begin to pay for their Leftist pipe-dreams. The Democrats are in big trouble because their 2020 Nominee is going to be someone who thinks like this - a perfect setup for Donald Trump's re-election.

Is there an inverse relationship between intelligence and beauty?

The best way I've heard it described is as "fractally wrong".

She should go to Sweden, the socialist paradise, where the avg take home pay is 30% of your salary.

That is right the Swedish govt’s first bite of the apple is 70%.

why do I say first bite? Cuz there is also a 25% VAT.

Swedes are nothing more than serfs.

Umm, last time I checked the ratio was still 1:1. No one gets out of this thing alive (except maybe RBG, I think she might be a cyborg).

“She even said that the SC said that Health care PAYMENTS are a tax-—so we are already paying the taxes for healthcare.
How in HELL did she get elected?”

Free health care; free college; free livable wage; increase in hourly wage; free housing; free extended maternity leave; and 3 month grievance from loss of a family member and your employer pays the funeral expenses, ( I just read about that one this morning).....like I told my son, socialism, FREE EVERYTHING IN THEIR LA-LA LAND!

“She supposedly has a BS in Economics from Boston U.
I’m glad I’m not faculty in the Econ department at B.U.”

All I know is that who ever paid the tuition bill at Boston U got a real bad deal, something is not right somewhere. I think she was given those degrees one in econmics and one international relations and really concentrated on “COMMUNITY ORGANIZER”, and where have we heard that before?

She’s almost as stupid as Megan McCain.

I respectfully disagree, Meghan, albeit occasionally, sometimes actually makes an intelligent observation. Cortez on the other hand, being a supposed economics major, has never to my knowledge ever made an intelligent observation or comment and has accomplished nothing except to prove that her brain and mouth are in complete disconnect.

Most don’t even cover up the corpses.

It is already happening.

Big time. My Grandfather went through the Bolshevik revolution as a teenager. The Bolsheviks went through his peasant village stealing everything they had. Their slogan was "For the People".

Last week I heard the Rats have released this new slogan for this years campaign...."For the People."

That made it clear to me they are trying to go this route. They have been prepping for this for decades.

Yes, “For the people” is pure communist.

Yes, they have been prepping for decades and Obama was their big test. Now they feel secure enough to go all out.

It’s amazing how the left has reversed their stands on things in the last 50 years. The Free speech movement of Berkley in the late 60’s is one example. They are now true tyrants.
