Hot Air ^ | July 27, 2018 | Ed Morrissey

Great news: The new face of the Democratic Party has spent some time with a “Nobel Prize economist”! The bad news: It hasn’t improved her math skills. In this clip from her appearance on last night’s Daily Show, Trevor Noah gently asks her to explain how she’s planning on paying for her Medicare for All agenda, plus the rest of her ideas in implementing Democratic Socialism.

The Wise Latinx likes to brag she had an economics degree from Boston University (BU). It is obvious from her statements she never bothered learning the material.

I plan to pay for it with Printed Federal Reserve Dollars and debt, at manipulated-low interest rates!

Just like all the progressives before me!

The usual answer is "we're going to ask those who have benefitted so much from our country to pay their fair share."

Which actually means "we're going to implement a dramatic tax increase for everyone who has a job."

See, the Federal Reserve has a secret money tree in the Hürtgen Forest. I will fly there and shake it until we have enough money. Viola! Paid for!

If you think she can put together a sentence like the one you’ve just written, you have more faith in this bug-eyed, buck-toothed chick than I do!

I think she knew she was about to really step in it though because the climate alarmists are trying to sell a “revenue-neutral” carbon tax, i.e. all of the proceeds would be refunded back to the taxpayers.

Stealing from and punishing the rich.

What commie leftards don't realize is that if you confiscated all the wealth of the rich and redistributed to the poor, each poor individual would receive a small one time amount that would not be worth the destruction of the economy as a whole.

“We will kill and eat the rich.”
“Okaaaaaaaaaaay. That’s spooky. But about the Medicare, how will you pay for it?”
“HAHAHAHAHA! You’re funny! I’m a socialist; we don’t pay for anything. Everything is free.”

I don’t know, who knows what they actually teach at Boston U’s modern “economics” college.

The perfect rebuttal, the grasp of education vs. understanding.

Except for STEM education, University graduates today get 4 to 8 years of education, and virtually no understanding of anything.

I assume that the tree is carefully tended by the Gnomes of Zurich?

When I saw Boston University, I thought, Oh no, that's where my grandson goes to school.

Then I remembered, he goes to Boston College {where he hides his Steeler, Penguin and Trump gear} so that he can live to attend his next class.

BC has a beautiful setting, Cathedral like buildings, a long forgotten Christian foundation, and a current reputation for high scholastic achievement in certain disciplines, but it is a liberal shat hole.

When I visit there, my family has me restrained in a Hannibal Lecter drag-a-long outfit so that the students and faculty are safe {from me and my little friends}.

Boston, the cradle of the American Revolution, has turned into the Moscow of America.

I guess economics degrees from BU are worthless.
