If I told you about this clip below, you would think I was lying or exaggerating. If I typed this up and shared it, people would think I had to be quoting The Onion.
This woman is in CONGRESS. She is VOTING on decisions that impact you and me. Every day. For the rest of our lives.
She has ZERO understanding of how businesses work, tax breaks work, etc. She has a degree in ECONOMICS from Boston University.
Not only that, she is on the U.S. House Committee of Financial Services.
This is simply unbelievable. She really thinks she “saved” NYC 3 billion dollars. She has no idea that that money DOESN’T EXIST.
Is there anything scarier than someone who knows nothing and thinks she’s an expert?
When are people going to start calling her out on this stupidity?
Now imagine if The Left continues to progress and we get a few more dozen of these types in Congress. This is what I’m talking about when I say this is what you will get from The Left.
.@AOC Rep Know Nothing
Uninformed foolishness abt chasing Amazon away
A. Believes future tax incentives = a $3B pot of money they can now redistribute
B. Thinks 25k professional jobs at $100k+ per will be offset by local jobs fm this non-existent $$$pic.twitter.com/X20gptIsMQ

Just demonstrates her fundamental lack of nderstanding of businesses role in society. Her personal politics and her desire for fame outweighs the good to her constituents. This is precisely why Socialism does not work!

What’s funny is @AOC is worried about New Yorkers not getting all the jobs from AMZN (and potentially displaced by other Americans), yet she supports open borders and low wage jobs getting displaced by illegals. So protect NY but not USA?Hypocrite! @realDonaldTrump @cnn @FoxNews

Sallie, thank you for the link. I’d been wanting to see it, because was hard for me to believe that even Ocasio-Cortez could be that far off the mark. But there she is.
You’re welcome. It’s so unbelievable you have to hear and see the words coming out of her mouth.
I vacillate between thinking she’s a communist plant and a Republican plant because I don’t want to believe someone that ill-equipped is in office. Kidding/not kidding.
When even MSNBC dumps on a leftist member of the Democrat Party, you know it is bad.

This interview with Dennis Prager about the Amazon situation and socialism is very interesting. He explains the mindset behind the thinking that this is a good thing.
I cued it up to start at the segment where she introduces the topic.

The other thing that just kills me about this is she talks about creating 25,000 jobs like she can just snap her fingers and suddenly there will be thousands of mom and pop businesses hiring lots of people at $150k a year. She is so clueless.
