Democratic Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Chief of Staff Saikat Chakrabarti has praised his boss’s use of social media and communication, pointing out that she “changed the entire debate on tax in this country in a matter of days.”
“She’s good at communicating and she’s good at taking a message and actually educating people and getting people to realize how these very complex policies work,” Saikat told CNN’s Reliable Sources on Sunday.
The progressive 29-year-old representative from New York, who refers to herself as a Democratic Socialist, has pushed for a significant increase on income tax for the wealthiest Americans. Under her proposal, American taxpayers would be taxed at 70 percent on every dollar they make beyond $10 million in any given year. Ocasio-Cortez, her supporters and economic experts have pointed out that the idea is actually conservative compared to policies that were widely supported by Republicans and Democrats in the 1950s and 1960s, when top earners were taxed at more than 90 percent.

All she has done to date is proven how stupid progressives have become.
There are a lot of ignorant people out there who buy into this craziness. It has been a thing on Social Media for a couple of years now. The “hate the rich” and “The rich avoid paying any tax” memes are rampant amongst the naive and jealous. She is not doing anything new but building on the social media groups like Getup and many more who are front groups for a socialist takeover.
It’s not Social Media, it’s “Swarm Intelligence” that weaponized the foolishness of youth and turned half the country into “Manchurian Voters”.
God Help Us All!

Orange man bad. Red chick good.
To clarify, I meant her name looks Indonesian. I have no idea what she looks like.

So ask Will Smith if he will publicly support or oppose AOC and Democrat Party. Or will he just set up shop offshore to protect his wealth?
