Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is promoting a new package of left-wing economic policies, including national rent control and expanding welfare to illegal immigrants across the country, as part of a massive new proposal aiming to achieve a “just society.”
The freshman lawmaker, who champions the multi-trillion-dollar Green New Deal proposal to combat economic inequality and climate change, has now proposed a package of bills aimed at solving perceived economic injustice.
“A just society provides a living wage, safe working conditions, and healthcare. A just society acknowledges the value of immigrants to our communities. A just society guarantees safe, comfortable, and affordable housing,” the website for the package says. “By strengthening our social and economic foundations, we are preparing ourselves to embark on the journey to save our planet by rebuilding our economy and cultivate a just society.”
That “Just Society” proposals are made up of six different pieces of legislation that deal with issues including housing, welfare, poverty and human rights.
“The Place to Prosper Act” would prevent year-over-year rent increases of more than three percent. Meanwhile, “The Embrace Act” would allow illegal immigrants to claim the same welfare benefits as U.S. citizens and those immigrants here legally,
“Notwithstanding any other provision of law ... an individual who is an alien (without regard to the immigration status of that alien) may not be denied any Federal public benefit solely on the basis of the individual’s immigration status,” the bill reads.

How any American could have put this immature childish brat into a postion of authority is way beyond my comprehension.
I own apartments my dad built which are duplex style.
He told me 10 years ago when building them always have an exit plan from apartments because he saw the rise of state and Federal gov’t intrusion in housing.
I can sell them off individually one day as condos if need be.
My wife hates them. Thinks they are a hassle.
Told me they will have a For sale sign out front before my body is cold.
...the Marxists way of operation.
Ah...don’t confuse the economics genius with reality. /s
America’s enemies demand rent control because prices are too high. The thugs also demand more illegals to drive up rents by increasing demand. Typical far-left logic. It’s all about power, and any excuse for expanding their grip on our lives will do.
If you want a vision of the future, imagine a boot stamping on a human face - forever.

But at least everyone is equal!
Social justice, “just” society, equality are all synonyms for thermal equilibrium, otherwise known as heat death.
Your father was a forward thinker.
You always have to think one step ahead of the Gibs and Grabbers of the .fedgov and .stategov.
Anything for Citizens ,Oh wait ,they’ll have to pay for it
Rent control under communism usually means residing in one of two places; a prison cell or a tomb.
