People need a little background here.

This has been what they have been teaching people at the University level for years. I first heard this 8 years ago from my Daughter. She stated that “It’s a myth that people can work hard and help themselves, studies show that people are essentially born into a class”

This was during the time of Obama. Social Studies majors, teachers, Catholic Schools, were already preaching this new theory that had become public less than a year before. The used this example to push Socialism (You know it better as Communism lite). The basic premise is that Capitalism doesn’t work.

Problem is, Capitalism does work. The highs and lows of economy, that Keynesian economics tried to eliminate, are just natural sinusoidal changes seen in any biological system or predator-prey relationship.

Socialists believe that ‘pulling yourself up’ just doesn’t happen. Yet, we stand in a nation that has “pulled itself up” from Wilderness. We stand among people that have built the greatest nation on earth, adhering to this principle. When confronted with this reality something odd happens.

They get angry and call you a liar. They call you a racist. They tell you that you are stupid and they mock you. They are certain that you are wrong......but can’t figure out how to pay back their responsibilities.....their student loans.

People don’t like to hear the truth. Like children, people scream that the world isn’t fair......and they are correct. Their is much randomness in the Universe, and working hard isn’t a guarantee of success and being a Socialist isn’t a guarantee of failure for an individual. I say this one thing that I call self evident: While ‘Bootstrapping’ isn’t a guarantee of success, it puts you in a position to succeed, and I know few people that are unable to take care of themselves who adhere to this principle. Socialism destroys nations, prosperity, and ALWAYS fails with time.

AOC is just repeating what she was taught by “Scholars”. I am just saying what life has taught me.

People must learn to turn off their TVs and radios and stop reading their daily fishwraps. Creatures such as AOC and Greta T and every other mouthpiece of the left are false faces created by the worldwide globohomo propaganda machine to spread lies and disinformation to advance the satanic Marxocratic agenda. We wouldn’t even know who these scumbags are except for our continued participation with major media outlets. There is no reason to subject yourself to the MSM schittshows any longer, now that the Internet exists. Get these monsters out of your mindspace.

This AOC person. She attended a 70,000.00 per year prestigious private college, tells us to pretend she earned an economics degree when she exhibits tge logic of a four year old, works as a bartender after incurring a 280,000.00 debt paid for by her family’s money, one can assume, but by her silly rant here, I am beginning to infer guilt

She refers to an illogical but common metaphor that every American is familiar with who ever went to a mentor after suffering frightful failure to have to go back in to rectify to fix the mistake has heard. This women suffered no such failure. Hmm. Milton Keynes. Something is fishy.

She touts her Puerto Rican heritage, but her comment illustrates her complete ignorance of basic Puerto Rican history.

Yes to the extent that almost everyone has been helped by somebody. However the federal government has oppressed and kept many millions of people down and dependent with its welfare-for- the -able and racism and over- regulation and taxation. In short, the core of the DNC/socialist/communistic program

Pull up Bootstraps? I’d be happy and they would go far if they would just keep their pants up.

Harry Truman was a small shop keeper!!
Abe Lincoln taught himself ‘lawyering’.
Davy Crockett was a woodsman.

My father entered this country legally, spoke very little English. First night in NYC after traveling across the country from entry port of Seattle, Washington slept on a piece of cardboard on the floor of a Chinese restaurant. Went on to serve in the US Army during WWII, fathered three sons, later all university graduates, and at the age of 87, died a multi-millionaire. Don’t tell me about bootstraps.

Sort of contradicts her own personal saga of a little bartender who gets elected to Congress and immediately deludes herself into thinking she can ride herd on the entire society.

Why is she wearing glasses that have zero optical power? Does she think it makes her look intelligent?

Ocasio-Cortez said it would be “narcissistic” to claim she bootstrapped her way into office.


Indeed. But she did act her way into office ...

To be fair, she and her comrades are on the lower end of the IQ scale and probably not very capable.

I have a very, bad feeling this woman is our next Nancy Pelosi and has a lifetime career tormenting us with her plans for this country.

Because she’s not as unfortunate-looking as Maxine Waters, or Elizabeth Warren she gets visual attention and not much for what she’s actually saying. Then again, liberals do not care much for facts. So she’s in for the long haul. Makes me shudder....
