Socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) repeatedly demonized successful business owners in an interview during a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event on Monday, literally arguing that business owners were lazy slave owners who profit off the backs of minorities who are “dying” because the business owners are successful.
Ocasio-Cortez made the extreme remarks when she was asked why successful business owners were “the enemy of health care.”
“Well, you didn’t make those widgets, did you?” Ocasio-Cortez began. “Because you employed thousands of people and paid them less than a living wage to make those widgets for you. You didn’t make those widgets.”
“You sat on a couch while thousands of people were paid modern day slave wages, and in some cases real slave, real modern-day slavery, uh, depending on where you are in terms of food production,” Ocasio-Cortez claimed. “You made that money off the backs of undocumented people. You made that money off the backs of black and brown people being paid under a living wage.”
“You made that money off the backs of single mothers and all these people who are literally dying because they can’t afford to live and so no one ever makes a billion dollars,” Ocasio-Cortez continued. “You take a billion dollars and all of that to say, is that it’s, and I’m not here to villainize and to say that billionaires are inherently morally corrupt – but they are, I mean, I think there is a case, but um, but, it’s not to say that, it’s to say that this system that we live in, life in capitalism, always ends in billionaires. If you don’t do it, someone else will. It’s who decides to make that choice is just kind of up to, you know, circumstance.”

She is dumb enough to be Adam the Shiftless’s sister.
Just because I hate and loathe the leftist news media people and the Dems, Socialists and Commies doesn't mean I am not able to expand it to hate the selfish slave drivers you referenced.
But we are much more danger from the Bernie,AOC and Commie types who would not hesitate to wipe us out (took advantage through 21st Century slavery of blacks, women and LGBTQ so we get the wipeout penalty).
Also hate the types who suppress the research findings about deadly side effects of new drugs until people almost or actually die from them. My MD told me honestly that she knows they toss the bad studies after paying the researchers but keep the ones that say cheery outcomes for patients versus placebo users.
Wow. This one is dangerous.
This STUPID VILE little tip-stealing b*tch is where she is because 14,000 jack@sses voted for her.
14,000 votes from putrid New York City, and our country of 340,000,000 has to put up what this fascist evil skank!
Unbelievable.....

The most deadly place in America is inside a liberal womb.

Fabians have never deviated from their original plan. See George Bernard Shaw for a good introduction to their goals and plans.
This stupid chick is dead from the neck up.
AOC should see venezuela where 90% of the population is now under the poverty line and 60% in desperate poverty. this in a very rich in resources country.
thats socialism
In a way the Chamber of Commerce and the GOPe globalists want the cheap labor. So in one sense she is correct.
