I plan to pay for it with Printed Federal Reserve Dollars and debt, at manipulated-low interest rates!

Tried and true.

I get frustrated to hear talk of how the wealthy need to pay their so called fair share.

We have a graduated income tax in the country, so that those with higher incomes pay at a higher rate. By definition, they are paying their fair share by complying with the tax laws.

In California, a study showed that approximately the top 10,000 tax payers paid about 1/3 of all the state income tax paid to the state of California.

All of those people have the highest incomes in the state.

Mitt Romney got slammed to talk of the 47% who don’t pay federal income tax at all. But it’s true that the lowest income erners among us pay for less or in some cases, no income tax.

I heard that the top 20% income earners in America pay about 90% of all income tax collected by the IRS.

So aren’t the wealthy among us already paying a fair share?

I heard Wal Mart pays about $5 billion a year in income tax, which is roughly 1/3 of their pre-tax income of about $15 billion.

If Wal Mart paid the entire amount of their income in tax, how much would that really generate to pay for Ocasio-Cortez and her socialist dreams?

Good thing the description of the video was in quotes - otherwise I might have thought it was a ‘real’ “interview.”

I wonder if she shared tips while working as a waitress? Usually works well for those who aren’t very good...and not very well for those that are.

"Ocasio-Cortez: I Plan To Pay For My Agenda By … Er …"
FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

Patriots are reminded that even if institutionally indoctrinated Ocasio-Cortez had a reasonable way to raise federal revenue to pay for her vote-winning federal spending promises, it remains that states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to appropriate taxes for the things that she wants to spend taxpayer dollars on.

In other words, Ocasio-Cortez is just another misguided socialist who is unthinkingly trying to unconstitutionally expand the already unconstitutionally big federal government’s powers.

The remedy for socialists like Ocasio-Cortez who have already gotten themselves elected ...

Patriots need to finish the job that they started when they elected Trump president.

More specifically patriots now need to be making sure that there are plenty of state sovereignty-respecting, Trump-supporting patriot candidates on the primary ballots and pink-slip career lawmakers by sending patriot candidate lawmakers to DC on election day.

It is because the real answer is : YOUR MONEY!

The answer for all socialistic policies is other peoples money.

She’s a piece of work.

She has a degree in economics, but doesn’t know how the unemployment rate is calculated.

She's a firm believer in, and proponent of, Obamanomics.

Pay for everything with OPM (Other People's Money).

How does she keep that vacuous little head of hers from imploding? The only explanation I can come up with is that her head is so far up in the clouds as to equalize the pressure - or it’s so full of you-know-what and so far up her you-know-where that she’s protecting herself.

Scary pic. Crazy eyes etc.

Is this how she always looks, or were she and her friends just goofing off?
