Ocasio-Cortez: Free Dirt Floors For Everyone

Freshman New York Congressional Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez has come up with an old idea and presented it as new.She wants to raise taxes on the working class so she can distribute the funds to her constituents who largely don't work enough.She claims that "free"assistance from housing to medical care and other benefits only limited by her imagination and certainly too long a list to jot down here could be delivered as easily as Amazon fills an order.Sounds like where Hugo Chavez of Venezuela started but then continued on to nationalize industries to fulfill his promises and the rest is history. Venezuela is now worse than broke. It still owes billions to creditors around the world.THe only thing that will be free in the end if Ocasio-Cortez gets her way is the dirt floors that a great many will learn to live with. Those people will find out how Alexandria's relatives lived.I refuse to go backwards for anyone. Ocasio-Cortez reminds of a perverted Capraesque character that goes to Washington the day after she was born. Her 16,000 voters seemingly were born on election day.
