"This vaccine – this pandemic is horrible. I mean, in every way, the lives and livelihoods of the American people are affected by it in a massive way. However, it has also pulled back the curtain to reveal further disparities in our economy and in our society. They have become – come into sharper focus because of the pandemic…" she stated.

"Clearly, the disparities in income and equity in our country are vast. We've known that. They've only gotten worse, and the pandemic, again, puts it in sharper focus. And that's why I'm proud to announce the creation of a new bipartisan Select Committee on Economic Disparity and Fairness in Growth, which will be a central force for the Congress to combat the crisis of income and wealth disparity in America."

"Let them eat ice cream!" right nanzi. Despite not "needing" it, did she miss a direct deposit since March of 2020? Does she do something benevolent with her CONgressional income? Provide free 'grampers' to other less fortunate octagenarians?

She is right this country is run by wealthy liberals like her and the rest of us have no real say into anything. If they want socialism then the thing to do is make them be the ones to pay instead of just complaining about it.

Yes, there are disparities, but sane people know they are due to intelligence, hard work, making the right decisions, luck.
Seizing money from the successful and giving it to the failures won’t fix disparities! It makes everyone poor, except the ruling elite which always does well off the fat of the land and our hard work. nancy is one of the ruling elite.

She keeps fancy ice cream makers in business :)

You know, I read that a dem who lost a house race by a few votes brought the issue to the House instead of the courts and that dems look at the “proof” of fraud and then decide who gets the seat.

Just like that.

How ironic

9 out of 10 “oligarchs” in the US support the democrat party. A majority of the top 1% support the democrat party. The wealthiest counties in the US support the democrat party (especially the government class around DC).

How long before the radical left foot-soldiers realize they have been sold a lie? It is a proven fact that wealth disparity grows dramatically in socialist, communist, and totalitarian regimes. They always claim to be for income equality and yet the opposite happens.....

To be clear, I do not care about “income equality”, but anyone who thinks Jeff Bezos will be worth less in a democrat administration because there will be more income redistribution is an idiot.

To combat “income inequity,” she’s stealing yet more tax money to create a bogus gaggle of friends and cronies who will manage to help narrow the gap between their mere millions and her hundreds of millions. They’ll confab for a few months, call it quits and announce in their re-election campaigns how hard they fought for the poor. Meanwhile, the poor, like those in maxine waters’s and pelosip’s districts will continue suffering.

Seems that I remember stories of the first settlers here trying the communal(socialist) way of setting up camp. Yeah, that didn’t last long. I saw some screed against meritocracy recently. Basically just put forth a mediocre effort so you’ll be like the other drones. No pressure to succeed or better your position. What a crock O’.

What she really means that it's not fair for working and middle-class people to complain about having their means they earned legitimately redistributed to the poor, who are poor thanks to the very same policies her and the Democrats' introduced.

DEMOCRAT PARTY IN A NUTSHELL:

- Top 10%: Democrat elected officials, Deep State, Hollywood and Big Tech execs

- Upper 25%: Left-wing interest groups: The unions, the militant blacks, LGBTQ, environment, voter "rights", spokespeople for illegal aliens, all funded by taxes from the working, middle, and upper-middle classes

- Bottom 65%: The poor, homeless, members of Antifa and BLM

Race, Race, Race. Will they never let it go with all the advantages minorities have gotten in all our institutions over the years?

I'm starting to turn into a bigot from all this white guilt nonsense. I've had friends of all races and ethnic groups. Hell, I grew up in Gardena, CA that had a large Japanese section. Two of my closest friends were Japanese. One of my closest friends was black during Navy days. We hung out together. They were all good Americans and didn't expect special treatment.

These damn commies (no matter the skin color) are Balkanizing our country.

I disagree. She is the epitomé of The Golden Rule: "He who has the gold makes the rules!"
