Hopefully AOC’s grip on a cocktail shaker was better than her grip on economics. Because she knows nothing about economics. Let me explain.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (known as "AOC," but only to people of whom she approves and YOU ARE NOT ONE OF THOSE PEOPLE), believes that in a free-market economy the only way people get rich is if they take money from others.

This is completely and thoroughly wrong.

“Her argument is predicated upon the idea that in the process of achieving great wealth, a billionaire had to take that wealth away from someone else. This simply isn’t how a free-market economy works.” ⁦ @brad_polumbo

This zero-sum ridiculousness most recently came up as part of AOC's -- I'm sorry, Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez's -- "ask me anything" Instagram stories when she was asked to explain why she believes that billionaires shouldn't exist. ⁩

From what I've read, she wasn't a very good bartender either.

She wasn’t. That’s why she had to lower her expectations and pursue her secondary career choice: Congresswoman.

Economics? Try the dimwit's grip on reality...

>>, believes that in a free-market economy the only way people get rich is if they take money from others.

The Conquistador Cortez woman only got rich as a bartender by taking the tips others were supposed to share.

But Pelosi will have her fingers broken if she steals from the DNC "tip" jar.

Just imagine what she’d be like if she’d gone to law school. Thank the Almighty for small blessings.

AO-C will pay $15 an hour for people with degrees from prestigious Universities to pick up trash along highways, and, those without degrees will figure out you don't have to pick up trash to get paid, just vote Bolshekrat.

The ‘pie’ of economics is the EARTH.
ALL things come from the Earth.
Look around. Your food, your home, your automobile , your clothing. All from the Earth. If we do not use the Earth (hopefully in sustainable ways), we perish.
Food, clothing, shelter. All from the Earth. Even the internet coding genius requires an earth-made platform for delivery.
Wealth is made and is anything but static. Consider the renewable forest used to fashion a home, the field to grow crops, the rock to make concrete and steel. The sand to make glass.
All sustainable life REQUIRES a solid work ethic. Of course, some creations are stolen. Yet they have to ‘created’ first.

don’t blame AOC. Blame the idiots who voted her into office.

AOC is a typical socialist who believes as all socialist do that the only way to measure a person’s contributions is how many hours did they work. An hours wage for a doctor should be same as an hour’s wage for a busboy. If you accept that premise, then anyone who is richer than anyone else achieved their wealth by theft.
