Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez on Thursday urged Democrats to vote in Georgia, telling them if they turn out in Georgia they can push through liberal objectives such as a $15 minimum wage and expanded health care.

“If we win these races in Georgia, we’ll be able to get people Covid relief without the funny business,” Ocasio-Cortez said on Instagram Live.

This commie woman is either a liar or she’s stupid. How can healthcare expand when the the Medicare system is contracting. You will get crap care and that’s it. LOL!
If minimum wage increases there will be increases in costs in all sectors.

The $7.25 is the Federal Rate. NYS has a $12.25 min rate in 2021.

Buy property now while it’s cheap! It’s the only inflation hedge we will have if they pull this trigger.

Sell bonds.

She ain’t tellin’ the half of it. If the Dems win Georgia, everyone, regardless of race, sexual orientation, gender identity or immigration status, gets a free unicorn that poops Skittles.

Even if they don’t win the GA Senate seats, Flimsey Grahamnesty, Micro Rubio and the rest of the Bush League Republicans are going to give the Democrats a permanent majority with amnesty for illegal aliens, so it may take a little longer, but they will wreck America, with Republican help.

Why should all of this, even, matter, if the world is going to end in 11 years and change, according to AOC?

Her promises are enough to get votes from Slobovian voters: about half of the voting population. We need to help Georgia Republicans get a yet unprecedented vote out.

They’re communists and have already planned and promised to take all private properties (see BLM platform).

Sure. Then they can take it away and give it to the "oppressed."

The mom and pops will just close like in Seattle.

These fools think employment us a required right instead of a voluntary contract.
