Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: $1.9 Trillion Relief ‘Should Be a Floor, Not a Ceiling’
Breitbart ^ | 6 February 2021 | HANNAH BLEAU

Rep. (D-NY) on Friday defended President Biden’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief measure, which the Senate passed Friday morning, contending the nearly $2 trillion price tag should “be a floor, not a ceiling.”

“Imagine being a policymaker in Washington, having witnessed the massive economic, social, and health destruction over the last year, and think that the greatest policy risk we face is providing *too much* relief,” she said. “Sounds silly, right? $1.9T should be a floor, not a ceiling”

This is what happens when an individual's main existence before Congress was making sure drinks stayed full and that you batted your eyelashes enough at the male clientele to ensure your tip was big enough (and if it wasn't, you just stole it from the others).

It's all just play money to this nitwit...

Ocasio-Cortez graduated cum laude from Boston University in 2011 with a Bachelor of Arts degree in both international relations and economics.

We already have the Weimar plus levels of perversion (that’s where the first “gender reassignment surgery” was done). Let’s print the money and get on with the hyperinflation.

Not only does she have a degree in economics from the academically challenged Boston University, but her tenure as a bartender makes AOC one of the very few Democrats to have actual work experience in the private sector. Gives her an up on Janet Yellen.

In a nation of 330 million people and a district of just under a million, how in the world do we end up with this?

It really is mind-boggling isn’t it?

From disliked 28 year old bartender to one of the most influential people in the country.....

Agreed. By the way, my sister in law graduated from Boston University and she's just as liberal as AOC.

And?

So she went to school (as far as I can tell on someone else's dime) and didn't sleep through her classes.

Bodton U. should be ashamed of its business school graduates. Nevermind, she will be a millionaire next year, and I won’t.

Thanks Brooklyn, for the movie, “idiocracy.”

Really, what does it matter the actual amount anymore? Just make it infinite, or say $100 Trillion, I mean why not? We can print it.
