While hardly in favor of that, I am amused at the manipulation that goes into talking cost. Why is one figure set out as spending over a twenty year period and another at a ten year period? Do they think the higher number will stick in the voters’ minds and be scarier than plain old annual numbers? Dems and Repubs both employ this technique. Maybe it’s to scare the horses, or their disdain for my and your discernment is done without considering we might notice.
And why would anyone in Congress listen to a word from AOC? She is the most junior of Congressmen even after she gets sworn in.
And the media push anything from her, or just what they are ordered to push?
LOL
Trump has a veto pen and the Reps control the Senate. A tempest in a teapot.
Tax payer revolt.
If millions of small businesses dont send in their taxes what can they do?
The yo-yos who write these articles just never question amounts.
There is a road map.
How about the “Big Dig” estimates.
How about the the California Bullet Train estimates ?
How about Obamacare estimates ?
fyi...5.2 trillion in 2010 is already up to 5.9 trillion today.
I hate commenting about stuff like this would cause one to think I buy into the premise. I don’t.
But stay silent on it ? The other side would think that means approval...
What can they do ? For starters they will electronically seize all you bank accounts and freeze your assets. Try remaining in business with no cash flow. We will only get our country back at the point of a gun and there will be bloodshed. Or maybe we will all just roll over and take it. I dont know.
I LOVE that one!
Ocasio-Cortez is not smart enough to dream up anything of this magnitude. I wonder who is really paying her bills and feeding her this plan.
I had to think for a minute....
Love it, too.
Ocasio-Cortez is living proof that 90% of Democrat voters are as dumb as rocks.!
Does this crazy Puerto Rican b*tch with the crazy eyes and the little girl voice plan to walk from Washington, D.C. to her district and back again?
She is opposed to fossil fuels...where does she think jet fuel comes from? And she hates corporations; the airlines are all corporations. Does she make her own clothes, use a smart phone, travel in automobiles? All made by large corporations.
The media push what they are ordered to push. They always have done this.
O.C is smart enough to push what she is told to push. That is how she got elected in the first place.
The people doing the selection of what to push do not have our best interests in mind.
I was asked “Why don’t you give new ideas a chance?” I replied: “Is failure a viable option to success? For a pilot, would CRASH something to experiment with?”
If we could cut NYC, urban New Jersey, Chicago, Philadelphia, LA, and San Francisco out of the nation, it would go a very long way towards restoring sanity in the US.
Which is why the market began crashing on election day.
The only Green thing in the Green New Deal is the Money it will cost.
“More than 40 Democratic lawmakers support the Green New Deal “
Why doesn’t the article actually name all of them?
