Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez: How can we afford my proposals? ‘I find the question so puzzling…’

John SextonPosted at 7:21 pm on November 5, 2018

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez gave an interview to Jorge Ramos last Thursday in which she was asked how she would pay for her agenda. Ocasio-Cortez didn’t even try to explain how she would pay for Medicare for all or free college tuition, she just said people would pay.

“In a modern, moral and wealthy society, no person should be too poor to live,” Ocasio-Cortez said when asked to define her Democratic Socialism. “We should treat healthcare, housing, and education as rights,” she said, adding, “I believe we should guarantee a basic level of human dignity in America.”

She's the idea man, her time is far too valuable to waste on boring details like how to pay for stuff...

Nothing is more antithetical to a sense of dignity than constantly and completely being on the dole. Remember when people were too proud to accept welfare?

Yet she never answers the question how all her ideas are going to be paid for.
I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

Isn't she some sort of economist? Or was that barista, I always get that terminology mixed up.

You say that like it's a bad thing....

I will NOT comply.

Actually, she did finally answer how to pay for it. The answer is beautiful.

I deal with enough stupid people in person. I don't need the news to find them out of state and report on their obtuseness.

Not all of us are blessed with the morons you have around you.  As Rush Limbaugh once said, "We have to keep a few Socialists around to study them."

I started listening. I just couldn't finish.

The woman is an IQ dessicant - she induces or sustains a state of stupidity
her vicinity.

 So, she still doesn’t have any idea how to pay for plans. Like Bernie Sanders, they push this stuff but yet become indignant when asked about the cost
