Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says you’ll never need a funeral if we adopt single payer health care

At 1:29 in this video, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says:

“Why aren’t we incorporating the cost of all the funeral expenses of those who died because they can’t afford access to health care? That is part of the cost of our system.”

So here’s my response: Bill Gates can afford all the health care that he wants, but it won’t save him from the expense of having a funeral.

Sounds like she’s planning something akin to Soylent Green.

Eternal life. It’s as credible as the rest of her promises, and the media still won’t criticize her.

This babbling moron is a gift that just keeps on giving. I say MAKE HER THE CENTERPIECE OF THE DEM PARTY. Get her on TV constantly. Keep her talking and spouting total nonsense.

The poor woman is all ideology and energy, and no thought, logic or brains.

“Why aren’t we incorporating the cost of all the funeral expenses of those who died because they can’t afford access to health care? That is part of the cost of our system.”

Even if funeral expenses were included in the cost, socialized medicine would still flunk the well-formedness criteria of rational action. The ratio of benefits of socialized medicine to costs would still be too low.

It means funding shortfall contingency measures come in the form of mass graves.

I so hope the GOP can find a way tie to tie this woman and her comments to every Dem candidate out there.

Of course. It's the logical conclusion of everything Marxists like her stand for.
