AOC allegedly on hook for unpaid seven-year-old tax bill: report
NY Post via Fox News ^ | 5/18/20 | Carl Campanile

US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to raise taxes on the rich - just not pay her own.

The Democratic socialist congresswoman from The Bronx still hasn’t paid a 7-year-old tax bill leftover from a failed business venture.

AOC had founded Brook Avenue Press, a publishing house that sought designers, artists and writers from urban areas to help paint The Bronx in a positive way in children’s stories, in 2012.

As the Post previously reported, public records show the state dissolved the company in October 2016. The state can make such a move when a business fails to pay corporate taxes or file a return.

The state Tax Department then filed a warrant against her now-defunct business on July 6, 2017, over a $1,618.36 unpaid bill.

As of Friday, the tax warrant had still not been satisfied, and the outstanding balance had grown to $2,088.78, the department said.

“She just thinks she’s better than everyone else. Clearly, she’s worse,” said Hank Sheinkopf, spokesman for AOC’s chief June primary-race opponent, Michelle Caruso-Cabrera, to The Post.

But Ocasio-Cortez’s camp says the rep is challenging the $2,088.78 bill because it was issued “in error."

By now she must have access to plenty of money. For her to refuse to pay a $2000 tax bill is pretty silly.

New York s#cks when it comes to taxes. The company was probably dormant, and NY still keep piling up bills. More like sloppy business practices on her part.

A good bartender in NYC could make that much in cash tips in a weekend.

I said a good bartender.

Sounds like the paramilitarized IRS enforcement agents need to bust her door open at 4:30 am, shoot her pets and haul her barefoot ass off to jail.

Taxes for thee, but not for me!

Clearly you don’t understand what a big deal AOC is. Taxes? Taxes are for little people who don’t matter. Suckers who work real jobs to earn money to support their families. Basically, the worst sorts of people.

You can bet she gets a free ride if she hasn’t been paying income taxes.

Only if they tip off CNN first. Otherwise it would be pointless and abusive.

AOC is NOT going to pay her tax bill and NOTHING is going to happen to her. I wish people would just stop bringing it up.

Just like Ihlan Omar is NOT going to be punished for violating immigration law and campaign cash laws.

We have a two tier justice system in America. One for important Democrats and another for everyone else.

“haul her barefoot ass off to jail”

How about haul her off to jail naked??? ...that would kill off all of the coronavirus within 100 miles.

Unfortunately, it would blind all living creatures in all of NY’s boroughs.
