Ocasio-Cortez: System that allows billionaires is ‘immoral’
Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez said in an interview on Monday that she believes a system that allows people to become billionaires is “immoral.”
The New York Democrat made the statement while responding to a question from writer Ta-Nehisi Coates at a Martin Luther King Jr. Day event in Harlem.
“I do think that a system that allows billionaires to exist when there are parts of Alabama where people are still getting ringworm because they don’t have access to public health is wrong,” Ocasio-Cortez said.

It has a degree in economics.
This girl is a true idiot, isn’t she?
Where in Alabama do people not have access to healthcare?
where in Alabama are we seeing ringwork breakouts?
Does she have any evidence for these claims, or does she make stuff up off the top of her head when she lectures us???
“This girl is a true idiot, isn’t she?”
No, she’s truly dangerous and the lives of millions are literally at risk if this totalitarian has her way.
LOL!
Jeff Bezos, he lay low.
In her world, all billionaires would have high positions in the party. They should earn their fortunes the old fashioned way; by intrigue and political assassinations.
Does she have any concept, any concept at all, at the number of people who have been employed, and had comfortable middle class lives, due to these allegedly evil billionaires???
does she have any notion at all, about how much some of these allegedly evil billionaires donate to charity??
Equality of outcome people are idiots.
If you don’t have access to health care, then GET A JOB.
Because they just bake it into pies or dive into piles of it like Scrooge McDuck...
There once was a goose that laid golden eggs.
If you kill the goose to get the eggs inside…you wind up living in 3rd world $h!tholes with not a pot to p!$$ in nor a window to throw it out.
Don’t get it, do you Occasionally-Claphead, you simpleton.
AOC is a shallow thinker, and I’m being generous. Why chose $1B? Nice round, big, number? Why specify U.S. currency as the cutoff for “too much money”? Why not Chinese Renminbi? There are, after all, more Chinese in the world. Why not a cutoff of $1M or a thousand? Her’s is a premise built on nothing. Well, nothing except envy, which underlies all of Marxism.
Someone explain to me how she passed.
“allows”... that shows, in one word, what she is all about.
Has she spoken directly about Michael Bloomberg?
there is a name for a system that prevents people from becoming millionaires: fascist.
