Why would anyone choose to work hard if the government kept 70% of their earnings over a certain amount of income?

They wouldn't.

If I make $100K and you take 30% in taxes I net $70K. If I make $250K and you take 70% in taxes my net is $75K. Can you see the issue?

No doubt that low education and low income added to her tally. They're even dumber than she is. She could come out with a million gaffes and they wouldn't know the difference. She knocked on doors and passed out fliers promising FREE everything. Why wouldn't such people believe her?

Being the candidate with the "D" after her name will get her automatically re-elected into her old age over there. Doesn't matter that she's a dingbat and has an extreme ideology (even if she herself doesn't understand that ideology).

Look, if the chairman of the Democratic National Committee believes that this idiot is "the future face of the Democratic party", then how can you fault a bunch of poorly educated know-nothings?

The only positive I can say about her is that she is not evil, just ignorant and stupid. There are two other new and radical Dem congresswomen who ARE evil. They are much more dangerous than this little girl.
Everything you wrote is exactly, completely and totally 100% correct.

It's the reason low I.Q., third world and second world populations have zero business in first world countries and the same reason the Jews pushed the 1965 immigration act since the 1920's.

They knew it would destroy the country and that's exactly what is happening now and to a much greater degree in the near future. If the people who vote for Democrats were capable of having civilized, first world countries with the freedoms we used to have in this country they would've had them centuries ago. But they're not capable. And their countries are places they want to escape from.

They are dependents, they are parasites and they are stupid.

One glance in the history books or today of their places of origin tells you every thing you need to know in a few short minutes.

White's ancestors were stupid. They never envisioned a society like this. They thought bringing over a few saves who would always be slaves or a few Asians to help build railroads was good for business.

This freak show was never envisioned.

But you know who did envision it?

The Jew. And their control of the monetary system made it happen.

It's amazing that the basic theory underpinning the anti-Semitism like we see in this poster's thread contributions has been the same for centuries. Anti-semitism isn't a mere belief that Jews are inherently inferior, it's a belief in the conspiracy that there is an invisible hand controlling everything in the world, and that hand is the Jew.

"has been the same for CENTURIES"

There's a reason for that.

"belief that Jews are inherently inferior"

100% total opposite. That's why SOME of them, probably not even close to a majority, get away with what they have gotten away with and continue too.

"it's a belief in the conspiracy that there is an invisible hand controlling everything in the world, and that hand is the Jew"

Far, far away from a conspiracy.

Stone cold historical facts and reality.

Yes, I wasn't saying that you anti-Semites believe Jews are inferior. I was trying to say that's not the case because that might be what some laymen believe. You just believe in this ridiculous conspiracy that the Jews control the world and are to blame for the world's problems.

Edit: this is a pretty hilarious change of direction for this thread.

I love this woman, love her fire and the fact that she's forcing us to have conversations we didn't have before. She's also completely unafraid of confronting her critics and firing back at them. The way she handled Steve Scalise was phenomenal.

AOC is not even seated yet, but is already rolling up her sleeves and going to work!





The article goes on to say that the job guarantee reflects lessons learned from Obamacare. Obamacare has survived not because of its structural qualities, but because it gave voters two new "superpowers." One was the rule regarding pre-existing conditions, and the other was the availability of cheap or free treatment through Medicaid. When repeal of Obamacare was tried, DC switchboards were jammed over the two "superpowers."

I'm somewhat skeptical of a climate change plan that does not include China and India, but you can't fault AOC for trying! She's really an inspiration!k:
She's a laughing stock and a fool who appeals only to similar types. Ignore her and she will evaporate.
