Art patrons (millionaires and billionaires who lie to Congress about no skilled workers in Estados Stupidos) don't buy art for talent. They buy names. They buy controversy. They buy press. They buy access.

Thus $100,000 cows in plexiglass.

Painters, sculptors, and others who work with their hands need not apply.

NY & PR (Puerto Rico) have produced some of the most idiotic people this world has ever seen.

Wow, just wow. Literally breathtakingly stupid and naive.

America must really be the land of opportunity if she can rise to such a position of incompetence.

Imagine AOC’s bedwetting if the Concorde was still flying transatlantic....

Appearing at the SXSW conference Saturday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said people should be excited by the prospect of robots taking their jobs because it will afford them more time to pursue their creative passions.

Ocasio-Cortez speculated fears over automation stem from a lack of financial safety net and economic uncertainty. “We should not be haunted by the specter of being automated out of work,” the self-avowed democrat-socialist said, according to Fast Company. “We should not feel nervous about the tollbooth collector not having to collect tolls. We should be excited by that. But the reason we’re not excited about it is because we live in a society where if you don’t have a job, you are left to die.”

The inner cities are not filled with people pursuing their creative and artistic passions, although they are financially secure (i.e. not starving), thanks to wealth redistribution handouts. If Ocasio-Cortez were the least bit observant of the world around her, she would know that. Furthermore, she would have an inkling of what really happens when people have no work. They feel useless. They turn to substance abuse. They engage in criminal behavior. They have problems with depression. Making even more people dependent on government handouts is not going to lead to a blissful utopia in which people pursue creative pastimes. In order for people to feel they have meaningful lives, they must have a productive way to spend their time.

I think this idiot Communist is going to be considered a moderate Democrat in a year or so.

"I welcome the automaton that will be taking over her seat in congress."

We should be able to find a candidate from among these stupid bots, that is cerebrally challenged enough to be able to easily qualify to take over AOC's seat in congress, as well as her role as today's premier, grand-idiotic-pronouncement-generator...

Another good one. She’s putting dumb Blondes out of business.

And where do they get the money for this creativity time?

You beat me to it ... but you’re absolutely right. Fagen said it better, earlier, and with pitch-perfect acoustics.

San Francisco is full of creative people who are pooping all over the streets.

On that train all graphite and glitter
Undersea by rail
Ninety minutes from New York to Paris
(More leisure for artists everywhere)
A just machine to make big decisions
Programmed by fellows with compassion and vision
We’ll be clean when their work is done
We’ll be eternally free yes and eternally young

Pretty sure we could replace Neiman Marxist now, with existing robot technology.
