NEVER FORGET YOU SAID...
I AM THE PROOF YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN.... Rep. Ilhan Omar

In the new nation that Democratic Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota seeks to create, the "capitalist system" will be left behind in pursuit of a "fair and just economy" where the federal government guarantees everybody jobs, housing, health care and free abortions.
How can we know this? She has declared it in writing.
Omar's campaign website includes a section called "Ilhan's Vision." The agenda it presents contradicts foundational American principles -- particularly the rights to life and property -- that were spelt out in the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution.
The declaration says that "all men are created equal" and "endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights."
The Fifth Amendment says, "No person shall be ... deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation."
The 14th Amendment makes clear that the rights protected by the Fifth Amendment apply to everyone and cannot be violated by the states. It says, "nor shall any state deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
In "Ilhan's Vision," a government that recognizes the right to private property is an unjust government.
"The capitalist system has led to a concentration of wealth in a small handful of elites while working people suffer," says Omar's vision statement. "We must stop the exploitation of working people to create a fair and just economy."
One policy she proposes to help move America away from the "capitalist system" toward a "fair and just economy" is to have the federal government guarantee everybody a job and a wage.
"A federal jobs guarantee would provide meaningful work to anybody who wants it," says her vision statement. "The program would: Provide a wage of at least $15 an hour, healthcare coverage, and benefits."
But this is only the start of Omar's vision for liberating America from the "capitalist system."
She also proposes a program she calls "Homes for All." It is designed to move America away from a "free market" in residential real estate toward what Omar calls "publicly- and cooperatively-owned models of housing."
"Housing is a human right," Omar says in her vision statement. "However, the free-market does not meet the needs of working families, while big banks and for-profit developers continue to profit off of working communities."
Imagine that: In this country, for-profit homebuilders profit by providing housing to people who earn money by working.
To stop this outrage, Omar says, "We need to move towards publicly- and cooperatively-owned models of housing for all income-levels."
Does this mean House Speaker Nancy Pelosi or her descendants should someday live in publicly or cooperatively owned housing? How about Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer?
In the nation Omar envisions, a population that is guaranteed government-funded jobs and is living in "publicly- and cooperatively-owned models of housing" will also rely on a health care system controlled by the central government.
"Ilhan will fight for Medicare for All, a single-payer healthcare system that guarantees quality care for every American," says "Ilhan's Vision."
Under Omarcare, no one will pay anything for any health care service.
Her system would "Require no out-of-pocket costs for patients for any services."
That would include the killing of unborn children.
"It is horrifying that we continue to fight for the right to seek an abortion and access reproductive freedom," says "Ilhan's Vision." Her system would "Provide abortion coverage and care regardless of income or insurance."
How will Omar pay for her vision? By taking more of your income and targeting family-owned businesses.
"Ilhan's Vision" will "Create a more progressive tax system by increasing income tax for the wealthiest Americans."
It would also "Strengthen the estate tax to limit the amount of inter-generational wealth that can be accumulated in the wealthiest families."
Massive public stock corporations do not pay estate taxes. Family-owned businesses do. The net effect is forcing families to sell their businesses to public corporations to raise money to pay a tax imposed on the death of a family member.
This death tax enriches big government and big business at the expense of families.
It also helps illustrate how Omar's vision would turn the America Dream upside down.
It would take money from parents who have worked hard and saved to build a business they want to pass on to their children and give that money to individuals who want to abort their children.
Who is more likely to lead America to a better tomorrow, those who work to build a family legacy? Or those who take a government handout to terminate theirs in the womb?
And establish a US Caliphate under Sharia Law also.
NEVER FORGET YOU SAID...
I AM THE PROOF YOU HAVE FORGOTTEN.... Rep. Ilhan Omar
It’s do easy...
“The capitalist system has led to a concentration of wealth in a small handful of elites while working people suffer,” says Omar’s vision statement. “We must stop the exploitation of working people to create a fair and just economy.”
Squaring this up with open borders is hilarious. Open borders serve to suppress the wages of working people, and to simply provide people who consume products more consistently over their entire lives than the majority population. Diversity makes worker “solidarity” impossible. Leftists are quite confused.
Actually, that’s not right. They are not confused at all. All of their alleged contradictions aren’t really contradictions. It all makes sense if the goal is wiping out and replacing the majority populations in Europe and the Anglosphere.
All those who claimed that Obama couldn’t be both a Muslima and a Communist - Take Note!
“...under the Constitution she swore an oath to “preserve, protect, and defend....”
Yeah, like Obama did. RATS LIE.
Its a nice, catchy phrase on the surface, but I would like her to define "suffering" in this country.
Go back to your country and implement it there.
Stupid Somali bitch needs to go back to sh*thole Somalia. She has no intelligence and can only recreate the sh*thole life of people in Somalia.
Equality = $15/hour job for every person.
So much for my Professional Engineering license and all of the schooling and work experience I put in to get that and my 6 figure salary.
Will this apply to all union contract wages as well? Tell that to my former Union Pipefitter brothers whose hourly wage is over $60!
Omar is pro-abortion?
Has that cleared the hurdle with her “faith?”
How will Omar pay for her vision? By taking more of your income and targeting family-owned businesses.
The along come s the government and takes more wages to support a bottomless immigration plan, healthcare plan, green plan - no one will actually take home more than spare change - if that.
Small family owned business will only exist on the black market.
But not to worry, in the fall of 2030 the Earth is due to pass through a very dense patch of the Taurids, which means instead of just a pretty light show in the night skies, everyone will get the joy of watching air-bursters and ground impactors all on the order of 5 Megaton to 30 Mt and the occasional larger 100 Mt.
The last time the Earth passed through this patch North America was consumed by firestorms and just about everything incinerated or blasted to pieces ushering in the 1000 year long Younger Drays - the coldest period known.
So just chill out about all this socialist stuff and have another beer.
She clearly loves living in a gulag.
Minnesota. Wow. Make the country proud, LEAVE, move to Russia where you will fit right in. Take all the other weird ohs that are members of your communist party USA with you. Go. Go now. Please!!!!
See post 34. Apparently Islamic views on abortion are all over the place, with most finding it acceptable up to a certain point in gestation.
USA is based on private enterprise, not capitalism. One is a subset of the other.
Private, family businesses vs corporate bank funded business.
Sounds like China - is that her ‘dream country’?
I’m sure they’ll be happy to take in someone who will trash their country the way she trashes ours... /s
She was lying when she swore.
They all lie when they take their oaths.
“Unless she was just lying when she did so.”
Muslims are allowed to lie when it promotes their religion.
What does that make their religion?
