She’s really not ready for prime time. Her handlers may want to yank on that leash a bit.

In a sense she is correct.

The academics who are writing her plan behind the scenes envision segregating certain segments of the economy into “profit-free zones”. These include health care and education.

as workers and as people in society, we’re the ones creating wealth. Not a corporate CEO. It’s not a CEO that’s actually creating four billion dollars a year.

She may be right about that - but there's no reason to believe, and plenty of reason to disbelieve, that government can do a better job of setting CEO compensation.

“Because at the end of the day as workers and as people in society, we’re the ones creating wealth. Not a corporate CEO. It’s not a CEO that’s actually creating four billion dollars a year.”

The right CEO leading a corporation can make the difference between generating four billion dollars or zero billion dollars. So the CEO is important as are all the workers. It’s a team.

If government leaves people alone then they can generate lots of wealth. The key is for government to just get out of the way and let capitalism work.

Leftist believe in capitalism.
Somebody else makes the capital and they confiscate it and give it to people who are above working for their own keep.

Leftists often confuse cause and effect. The reason that corporations are interested in control of government is because those in government are exceeding their constitutional boundaries. So - if the feds were keeping their mitts off the markets, the corporations would have less incentive to try to influence them.

AOCs brand of socialism just makes this problem worse. I think many of the representatives realize this - but if they stopped, their gravy train of truckloads of cash would stop.

Dear AOC. Given that you identify so strongly as a Latina woman, and given your Puerto Rican roots, I suggest that you experiment with your political ideology in Puerto Rico. Why not make it your grand experiment? If you turn Puerto Rico into a socialist economic powerhouse, you will have promoted your cause. If not, well, maybe you and other wannabe socialists will have learned something.
