Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said on Thursday that lawmakers should consider a swath of measures, including no-strings universal basic income (UBI) programs, as a response to the economic impacts of the Chinese coronavirus.
The freshman lawmaker weighed in on the ongoing debate over an economic relief package designed to combat the ramifications of the coronavirus. She said while proposals, like expanding unemployment insurance, are good, they are not enough and pushed for far more drastic, big-government measures.

“Is money and power that important to them?”
Yes, because they can’t compete with normal-productivity people.
AOC couldn’t get above “bartender”, even with a BA in economics & international relations ... until she was found to have a knack for presentation & persuasion, used to leverage sociopolitical weaknesses of the productive/successful into money & power (recursively).

Oh, absolutely. Let’s give everyone free money whether they work or not. Sounds great if you want to destroy the economy. I’m ready to sit on my sofa and collect free money forever! I’m sure there are plenty of others who will too. We’ll reach full unemployment!

“I do not see the logic of connecting the two.”
There isn’t to normal thinking people.
This idea is so lame I don’t even think the most die hard lefty could see a connection. This girl is really one of the dumbest the rats have brought to the forefront in a long time.
