Ocasio-Cortez’s failed company is a tax deadbeat: warrant filed over unpaid taxes to New York State
By Thomas Lifson
Despite being the object of a huge amount of media attention, few people seem to know that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tried to be an entrepreneur and fell flat on her face. Her media pals certainly have no interest in publicizing the fact the she embraced socialism after she proved to be utterly, embarrassingly incompetent at earning her way. Monica Showalter asked the key question ion these pages last summer: “Did Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's socialist fanaticism come from bitter failure in business?
Now, thanks to digging by the New York Post, we know that:
Brook Avenue Press, a company she founded in 2012 to publish children’s books in The Bronx, owes the state $1,870.36 in corporate taxes, public records show.
The state slapped the company with a warrant on July 6, 2017, two months after Ocasio-Cortez announced her candidacy to run against Democratic incumbent Joe Crowley for the district that encompasses parts of Queens and The Bronx.

This is a most excellent find. Failed at capitalism and now a full-blown commie, determined to destroy successful capitalists.

It is typical to leave a dead company with some unpaid state corporate income taxes. In this she is no different from most entrepreneurs who suffer a failure - and most entrepreneurs have at least one failed business under their belts.

Well that closes some of the gap.

Most entrepreneurs don't go to full-blown communist after their first failure.
