Yesterday we published two seemingly unrelated news articles. Yet the story they tell when placed next to each other and viewed in the same gaze with clear eyes is one every American should hear and ponder.
First, we reported on Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. The darling of the "just left of Marx" camp, in an interview with Vice, stated that once the economic lockdowns are lifted, Americans should simply refuse to go back to work. Here's what she said:
"When we have this discussion about 'going back' or 'reopening,' I think a lot of people should just say, 'No. We're not going back to that. We're not going back to 70 hour weeks just so we could put food on the table and not even feel any semblance of security in our lives.'"
Americans should refuse to go back to work, she says. "No. We're not going back to that," we should say.

Theodore Roosevelt’s ideas on immigrants and being an AMERICAN in 1907.
“In the first place, we should insist that if the immigrant who comes here in good faith becomes an American and assimilates himself to us, he shall be treated on an exact equality with everyone else, for it is an outrage to discriminate against any such man because of creed, or birthplace, or origin. But this is predicated upon the person’s becoming in every facet an American, and nothing but an American…There can be no divided allegiance here. Any man who says he is an American, but something else also, isn’t an American at all. We have room for but one flag, the American flag… We have room for but one language here, and that is the English language… and we have room for but one sole loyalty and that is a loyalty to the American people.”
Remember when the Left claimed to be the champion of the workers? Nowadays for them, “worker” has gone the way of “housewife”, “veteran” and “citizen”. A shameful embarrassment.
Communists are all for workers rights right up until they have the power to line them up against the wall should they have their own ideas about where and when to work.
Nothing to see here.
Great piece, thanks for posting!
They murder the nation’s posterity in abortion mills and seek to protect / give handouts to illegal aliens during government enforced economic downturn.
Shows the DNC’s priorities.
Contrary to popular opinion, the government’s ability to print money is limited.Its ability to print US Dollars is infinite - but printing unlimited dollars causes the value of each to decline, and in extreme cases decline faster than the quantity of dollars increases. Infinite - quantity dollars would be worth bupkis - individually and even collectively.
See, “dollar, Confederate."
Like Venezuela?
