Cortez, if our system is not to your liking, why do so many people from all over the world come here? Why did your family come here? Because the United States is the greatest country in the world. That’s why. Don’t like it, go to Venezuela or back where ur fam came from.
If the system allows billionaires, that means that anyone in the system has the potential to be a Billionaire. Btw, cortez, the system isn’t allowing it. These people are just smarter than you and work harder. You could be a billionaire but obviously your not smart enough so far
Young minds often times do not have good ideas
I don't know who you are. But I will say this, if you think for one moment, that all the scrap your taking, will happen. You better wake up. Your just a child to me. You got lucky to win the 14th district, you should be do things there first. Just maybe you might move up.
Well they would wouldn’t they? The 1% have had it all their way for far too long. It’s time the other 99% had a voice and were listened to. AlexandriaOcasioCortez is that voice and we’re listening!
Good
She really is their millenial nightmare come true.
Geez, business rejecting a cash increase is a no brainer. How many remember the 90% bracket in the 50's with the numerous tax breaks which I assume would occur again. Small incremental increases would be more paletable to congress people making any bill much easier to pass.
oh no what will they do
Really? Funny thing is they all support the leftists who give them what ever they want. Maybe it’s time they got a taste of what they support.
Bet money it’s not just those in Davos! Bet the owner of the Washington Post, HATES IT AS WELL! Guess His Name!
Off course.
If they hate it, then it must be good? 😂🏦
No surprise here.
Naturally, but they also have little to fear.
Duh.
If rich people hate it, it's probably good
She is a dope plain and simple
This just in! The Hindenburg has crashed!
Of course they do.
No shit, Vern.
Normal people love it. You asshats.
I guess that's the seal of approval right there
I’m soooooooo concerned about what billionaires don’t like.
those same billionaires are owners of multinational corporations. Multinational corporations rarely hold any true loyalty to USA. Just look at how many of them have sold out USA proprietary technology to China. China USA BeltAndRoad
So do I. Make it 90%.
If you think that's shocking wait until you hear what religion the pope is.
They better get used to only 'earning' $10,000,000 a year at a regular tax rate.
That’s probably a sign she’s right
Someone out of nowhere 3 weeks in to her career now is the face of the democrats - what the hell?
That makes it better!
No shit?
Of course , when the hyenas see somebody touching their meat the go crazy
Ok, make it 90%
Hell yeah they do!
.... surprise ....surprise....
Tax them.
Duh?
too bad!
EVEN WAPO can;t bring themselves to call it a 70% marginal tax upfront in the lead line.
Most educated adults know it’s wrong. More and more government. When will it stop. I guess when they own you and everything you have.
And that’s a surprise?
Hmmmm
Hilarious to watch the Davos crowd, literally the most powerful people on Earth, shaking in their boots over a 29 year old freshman Congresswoman from New York lol. Shows you how fragile their grip on power is and how dependent it is on us accepting it. And THEY know that.
She has no clue...
Whaaaat! 😲
'Billionaires should not exist' - aoc NoBillionaires AOC
Good
Good.
Of course they do. Regardless the income inequality is destroying humanity and needs to be changed.
Seriously, does the only know 5 people? What is up with this obsession about negative-laced headlines about AOC ?
Why is that not surprising? But let’s hear from the billionaires with integrity like Buffet and Gates.
I bet they do.
Baby hitler
Of course they do, but they better check history, at one time it was over 90%, she is wrong
Yeah, they just want a tax on the rest of us.
Tas the rich is nothing new. It's just that no president wants to do it since Clinton did. It is proven to work. Billionaires should be taxed down to millionaire. Simple.
It's rare the hollowness of Davos is laid bare so easily. The crowd at Davos chats for global leadership and addressing inequality, just not too much...
Well, that was unexpected.
Ah der
lol even the middle class hates it despite it not affecting them.
Fortunately for them Mitch McConnell is always for sale.
I say 80% is better! Trump4PrisonMAGA
They want her to run Venezuela
Of course they do, you’d never hear a billionaire saying “Hey guys, I got too much money, let me help someone with a hand up”. Nope, never gonna hear that...
Lift the threshold to 100 million please!
May they allDie withinThe2Years InclTheirFamilies. The Time is Now, Their End is Now. EatTheRich SlaughterTheRich
o my god really they don’t want to pay taxes no way
How much is enough for these people? Progressive, marginal taxation is the singular reason for the explosion of the middle class in the mid 20th century and conversely, the eventually collapse of the middle class later. This is a fucking no brainer.
Surprise!
👍 AOC 👍
F all billionaires.
Forgot to mention marginally word between (percent and tax)
❤️AOC!
I’m stunned.
G greedy rich people are scared somebody's going to take a little bit of their money. How surprising.
Duh?
And Water is Wet.
Then she is doing something right. 👍🏻
That sucks, maybe let’s try a 90% tax instead, see if they like it better.
Yeah, of course they do. So?
Go AOC , go. The best way forward is keep pushing. We need a fair share to achieve economicDemocracy socialJustice HumanRights
You have to decide when and why to amplify divisive stories that issue from divisive people. What was your reasoning this time? Circulation? Pandering? FOMO?
I wonder why
I hate billionaires
So the worst people in the world hate her? She must be good
Should make that tax 99%!
Instead charging 70% to billionaire fix those 70% loopholes in tax code so they can pay fair share of taxes
Of course they all have lawyers and accountants to ensure they don't actually pay the taxes they owe already, which demonstrates how purely ideological it is to oppose progressive taxation.
The other part of your headline should “but MIT economist says not so fast, we need to look at this”. What a stupid click bait headline WP! Of course the rich don’t like it. They’re currently robbing us all blind and would like it to stay that way.
Anything those leeches hate I’m all for.
In the U.S., the top 0.1% of the population owns more wealth than the bottom 90%. And want more! They have lobbyists. Corporations pay tax on net revenue while individuals pay on gross; have unlimited funds to buy laws; and soon will have voting rights, one vote per employee...
DanFmTo Doesn’t the world generally wait for what Davos says - then do the opposite?
I mean, well duh.
and water is wet.... Duh!
What? You mean the people who would pay the tax aren’t happy about it. Sounds like it’s just what we need.
They are less that 1% of the population. Why do they get such a disproportionate say in how politics works? You think that's reasonable?
Taxes were over 50% for the rich in the 50's when I was a kid. and the gov wasn't broke.
Billionares need to get over themselves...and actually contibute to the solution..instead of reaping from the poor
Thats 70% if income is over a certain amount. WaPo you are editing the truth, why?
Sounds like wishful thinking and a delusional disproportionate sense of personal value at the table.
They would rather the poor suffered rather than admit they're takeing the piss with these tax breaks. Why would anyone want so much money while others went without? Greed is a deadly sin, yet half these billionaires at least believe in God. Challenge them!
I wonder why? Hmmm let me think
Alert the media.
Dang! I made another million and only got to keep $300,000.
Hahaha, who gives a shit what they think?
La bla bla
Actually I have a hunch billionaires in Davos don't know or care about AOC. This story is just more nonsense. I can just see Jeff Zuckerberg or Bill Gates losing sleep due to AOC.
It only goes to 70% after 10 million dollars!! This is not a new idea. It’s been used in the past, including by a Republican President!
Ok. Who cares? Billionaires being upset about being a little less rich is the least of my concerns
This women is so stupid. Show me a communist country and all show u the leader of that country as a billionaire as a result of taking all monies from citizens.
Shit, don't be billionaires if you don't want to pay all the taxes. You could: 1) Donate the money 2) Pay your workers more money 3) Make the workers the shareholders 4) Start several non-profits 5) Just build Donald Trump's wall because no one else is going to fucking pay for it
Ticks hate losing their blood supply.
Too bad.
I want the job of person who tells billionaires we are taking most of their money to feed poor people.
Is Davos, like Betsy Davos? Another Nazi .... on the home front?
Understand that the marginal tax rate she is speaking says you pay 70% in taxes on anything you make after $10 million in one year. Everything after the 10 million is taxed at that rate. It was much higher under Pres. Eisenhower.
That billionaires are scared at the mere mention of a 70% marginal tax rate tells you that AOC is on the right track
Who the hell cares what they like or don’t like? It’s worked before for us and it will work again. Tell them to shut the f**k up and mind their own country’s problems!
If that's the case then AOC must be on the right path
'Really rich people reject raising taxes on their absurdly extravagant lifestyles.' Is this even news anymore. I'm irritated about my school taxes going up this year. Do I get any headlines?
Is this a real article? Did you really have to let us know billionaires want to hoard their money instead of contributing to the growth of society?
GedesBru Well of course they do, bless their selfish, corrupt little hearts.
Regular folks just hate her blatant ignorance.
Breaking Headline News🙄🙄🙄
Over the last week has absolutely had the worst takes.
How is this news? Of course they do. They didn't get to be billionaires without overweening greed.
SHOCKING
70% MARGINAL tax* which would be a huge discount from what it used to be (and tbh should be) 90%.
Tacit acknowledgement Davos sets US policy?
😩😩😩
I wanna hear celebrities take on what she proposes
G O O D
Chickens hate KFC.
Billionaires in Davis hate this one weird trick...
Nationalist and Facist Billionaires. Many others are for billionaires paying more share of their taxes.
i can only guess how billionaires not in Davos feel about it
Good.
In other news: dogs still good boys, ice cream remains a cool summer treat.
F your 1%
Oh the poor billionaires, how will they go on?
i love this song
Billionaires don’t want to pay their fair share of taxes that’s why they hate this wonderful person
How is this news?
FuckDavos
Boo Hoo. They can go scratch. My husband needs ear surgery, he has insurance & I’m panicking about what they’re planning to deny him coverage for.
I hate it too and I am neither a billionaire nor in Davos. SmallGovIsBest WWTFD (what would the framers do)
They should all be in jail, tell them to be thankful we're letting them keep any money.
This isn’t the ideal way of doing things though. You know what’d be better? Corporations (and by extension the rich people who mostly own them) paying workers what they deserve in the first place, something unions help accomplish (“I HATE UNIONS” screams Davos in the background)
No shit?
Wow I'm so surprised that people who only care about their own self interest hate the person attacking that self interest
Well they make up an extremely tiny portion of the population, so really who cares. Majority of people like it.
Good. We hate them.
I have a feeling they have nothing to worry about.
Duh!
A proposal that pisses off the egotistical, elitist, self-centered bastards at Davos is pretty much a sure sign that you’re headed in the right direction. Anything that makes those fancy bastards’ inflated heads explode is probably good for the public.
Ummm.... DUHHHHH!!
They should be start with her .😃
Good. Let's eat the rich.
How surprising!
Thankyou AOC🤙🏽
Hardly a surprise.
Half of those billionaires are bankrolling AOC and her handlers!! I can see Tom Steyer, & George Soros quaking in their boots! (Not)
Keep pushing YOUR Agenda ......
%70 is ridiculous. %90 is less ridiculous.
We should just get rid of the billionaires. There serve no purpose and hurt the rest of us. They’re greedy hoarders
Gee.....ya think?
They will stay in Davos if she gets her way.
That’s a good sign that OAC is doing things right.
There's a reason the poor are poor. Trying to be Robin Hood and giving them even more handouts than they already get is the definition of a stupid idea. They will always find a way to be poor
Remember, it was because of America that you got to be as rich as you are and now you turn your back on it by not paying your fair share of taxes, hide your money in off shores accounts and tax schemes. Shame on all of you.
Womp womp
I love it. Tax sports ballers, Hollywood pedos, Wall Street con artists and billionaires ( mostly Dems ) at 90%.
On those making $10 MILLION. Here's what Americans hate: 40+ years of financialization - monopoly/oligopoly capitalism ('too big to fail', with its inevitable regulatory capture) - oligarchy, without a working class opposition (*US, you are here*) - fascism.
No shit but hey they’re billionaires they could spare a few bucks smh
That's why we love her.
Uh, duh. The story is how they convinced everyone else to vote against their own interests
Who cares if they hate it. Better straighten up now or like VoteOjeda2020 said the poor will eat the rich and trust and believe when people get desperate enough, it’ll be worse than the yellow vests in France.
MadsusuO Seriously. I do not think Warren would have a problem with it.
They world is laughing at the USA because of the Democrats leadership. She obviously showed no sign of understanding how the economy works. The sad part people are so selfish nowadays that they actually support the stealing of someones’ money.
If they don't want the government to have it, maybe pay employees more? Novel concept. This isn't Lord of the Flies.
She is a socialist
In other news: Water is wet.
Cool I hate billionaires
Shocking. Absolutely shocking!! I would think all those diamond crusted paperweights rolling about on pristine snow would applaud, cheer, hyperventilate. Why are they still there? Don’t they have jobs?
And what will the Government do with the tax money generated? They waste the money that comes in already. They are inefficient in anything they do. Why should anyone give over 2/3rds of what they earn, even if it’s over $10 million.
Are those Davos’ billionaires supposed to be leftists?
It would actually be doing them a favor, just think how much more it would mean to be a billionaire in that tax bracket.
Who cares. Really 1 Rep. in office less than 21 days omg stop clutching your pearls
No 💩. Really?
Oooh, I just bet they do. It should be 95% on everything over $10,000,000.
TAX those greedy, hateful, trump supporters!
This is a giant bubble - wealth redistribution is NOT the answer: 'Asset Bubbles Are Making Davos Billionaires Richer':
The “working class” as people are saying is fighting back and they deserve more. They tend to forget this business people brought improvements and actually made more millionaires than ever before. They employ thousands of people, invest in future and keep the American dream alive
Including Jeff?
Of course
Fine, we will take it when you are dead
We could just take 12 percent off the top
She’ll keep on until her plane crashes or she goes crazy and shoots herself in the back of the head twice.
Anyone who understands that 1+1=2 hates her ridiculous economic theory.
Certainly she’ll lead by example & contribute the majority of her paycheck.
well they could always become russian citizens like some french film (star).
Too bad, this inequality needs to stop,it is disgusting that these ppl w/so much money, just want to keep amassing more at the expense of others!
To bad! You go AOC !
The rest of us love it.
Why fighting paying 70% taxes, anyway the world will end in 12 years so you might as well give it all away ! : ) 2031EndOfTheWorld
That doesn’t necessarily mean she’s wrong though.
Really? I’m so shocked.
validates it’s a good idea AOC
Tough shit
It’s funny that people talk about this as if she’s already made it a law all on her own...
Fucking duh
For AOC the best way to make a small fortune is to start with a big fortune...
who gives a shit?
She not very insightful. Aggressively taxing billionaires who may own businesses that create jobs within the USA will only drive these jobs overseas. A more balanced approach may have more success. Utopian ideals will inevitably fail. Life is not fair.
No shit they dont like it... the majority of Americans support it though. There is change in the air and the ruling class should be worried.
Poor snowflakes.. Obviously means she is doing something right.. AOC go girl..
Shocker! I'm sure AOC is super-concerned about the Davos crowd.
26 people at Davos control 1/2 of ALL the wealth in the world. They pose the REAL threat to the planet.
Good.
The top marginal tax rate applies to the highest bracket. Income is taxed at higher rates as more is earned. REMIND THESE RICH DUDES THAT IN DWIGHT EISENHOWER'S DAYS, THE MARGINAL TAX RATE WAS 91%. OAC is offering them a bargain.
rhonda_harbison AOC 👍👍
She’s a complete moron. People don’t u think a 70% is a bit much. I’m not a millionaire and I think that is crazy. WashingtonPost cortez
In other news, water is wet and the sun came up today
I would too if someone made it legal to steal from me
It is of course wonderful to be successful and earn more money than most, but how much money, how many houses or cars does anyone truly need? Not sure about 70%, but high earners should be paying tax at a higher rate than the average Joe.
Daa!
color me stunned...
Good.
Some of those Leaders read right to left (Hebrew for example) They can read it as 0 then 7 - What they don't like 7% either? She's not going to impose 70% it's just a number But, should AOC become President one day, hey I'm with Alexandria from the Block. Get me Davos? 70/2=35%
We need to start with Nancy Pelosi and Tom Steyer not just 70% how about 80%
Good.
Who cares? I hate that homeless people freeze to death at night
Shocker
So what you're saying is that Bezos is confident he'll find a way around a 70% tax rate?
Billionaires might know a thing or two about money. And they're BILLIONAIRES, so they're not looking for a way to get rich. They're already rich. AOC may want to study how free economies produce the riches their citizens enjoy. We don't need her reinventing the wheel.
So do billionaire Democrat donors...
And in other news water is wet
Good for her. She must be doing something right!
I love it. All corporations have done is cry about paying taxes. Over pay their CEOs move their companys out of the country lay off the American workers. Lets turn the country back to we the people. If we don't it'll get even worse. We've see what happens when you let the rich ru
good. tax’em.
I am sure she is not losing sleep over it.
Good.
Good proposal but next question would be whether govt can handle that tax in a fair manner or not? Or whether innovation and Invention would be possible under govt supervisions?
Shocker. Guess how much those of us in poverty hate billionaires.
Remember, trolls, that's 70% of income *after* the first $10 million dollars. Anyone who has time to read this tweet doesn't make that much and really ought not be complaining.
Small business owners also count as the “rich” so it’s not only affecting billionaires. One could argue they should pay high taxes but 70% is incredibly high.
I read that Rome used to have a 1% wealth tax, but no income tax. Though some places taxed urine...
Well if she ever got that way - all the billionaires would move overseas and take their money with them- simple dumbidea
incredible self own by the billionaires
I'm sure. She wants to clean up their courrption of money hoarding, tax manipulation and off shore tax evasion.
thank you for this completely irrelevant information
I don’t think any of you understand what unrealized capital gains are, which is what 99% of billionaires ‘earn’ each year.
NO! That CANNOT be! FakeNews!!! AOC for World Prez Davos2019 Fair Taxes
Yeah lets drive wages down some more too and prices up. Anyone seeing the whole picture of this mess? 70%? Sheesh.
Good to hear.
Good
Love it!
Of course they do , they are billionaires.
Of course the dispicable colonialists hate it. I expect them to hand over their money. I don’t expect them to like it. Congress is in session bitches!
Great for her PR then
Perfect, let's do it!
The Rich used to pay 90% in the 1950s and 70% in the 1960s. It was acceptable. I believe It was that crack dealer RonaldRegan that began changing tax laws with the support of our financial Institutions in the 1980s when this wealth Gap began. I could have some facts wrong though
The book for write-offs gets thicker as the tax rate goes up. The poor think the rich pay more but in reality it's still less. Enjoy!
Making progress. You go girl.
This confirms it is good for humanity.
Fucking duh captain obvious
'Hate?' Who said that?
People need to clarify that it is only a 70% tax on income AFTER $10 million/year. If you are making over $10 million/year you can afford to pay a little more in tax for anything extra so the USA doesn't become a third world country.
Why? They’ll still be billionaires.
Well, duh...
So do non-billionaires who work for a living.
AOC is doing something right then!! Trickle down affect DOESNT WORK!! Every republican president for 50 years has tanked our economy thinking it does
Most of those billionaires are self-made. And yes, they all deserve to keep as much of their income as anyone else.
That is a good sign if they hate it.
No sympathy for them, sorry.
Shocker. Rich people don’t want us to take their ill-gotten gains
She’s the dumbest newbie
Of course they do. The rich seem to think they're playing a video game trying to rack up the most points.
Would she pay a 70% tax? No!
Ya don’t say.... imagine that
I’ll bet they do lol
I bet they do...
Like *this* is a headline in the United States of America. The absolute state of the Washington Post... IngrahamAngle
thoughts and prayers
No shit.
It is not a flat 70 percent tax. Please don’t say that in your headline. You aren’t the first news org I’ve seen say this but, really, I expected more from WaPo.
Duh
I LOVE YOU ALEXANDRIA
Can’t imagine why? P.S. folks being taxed rarely jump for joy about the prospect
Billionaires and anybody who aspires to become one...
And tens of millions under the poverty line wholeheartedly agree!!
I won’t pretend to have a full understanding of how everything in the economy works. From what I have read, our capitalist economy depends on constant growth to be healthy. Growth that will become harder to come by as wealth is concentrated among fewer and fewer people.
Pandora64857560 Oh dear...
So, it’s a good thing then. Good to know.
Has she ever heard of capital transfer? is wanting to cause a bankruptcy in the United States, only this woman should go to Venezuela where the riches belong to the state.
And in other breaking news, the sky is blue
Well, that's surprising! Said no one, ever.
Why do you keep targeting this freshman lawmaker There are hundreds of Congressional lawmakers in Washington.
No shit!
They’d all still be billionaires even with 70% tax.
It's moronic. Young and dumb
70 percent what? Incomplete headline
I would bet the young lady is not shaking in her shoes.
Of course they do it’s a good thing
Of COURSE millionaires and billionaires hate AOC . They don't want to pay their fare share. Eisenhower, REPUBLICAN president, had 80%. It only starts after the first $10M.
This is AMERICA'S worst problem! There are people out here in this country that ONLY cares about living like King & Queens and profits ALWAYS come before the living conditions of the people!These 'types' of individuals are destroying the future of our children, and causing stress
The Super Rich always have the option to pay their employees more money and pay less in taxes, Right Alexandria ? AOC
She has hit the nerves. What do the majority of the normal people think? they are for the 70% MARGINAL tax. We could get this done or at least move up the top tax rate to 50% or so in 2020!
The GOP Eisenhower years created the Middle Class from the Working Poor, with 91% Tax Bracket. WWII Vet's and their families prospered, becoming better educated and enjoying a better life, than previous. The Can't buy Shit Trump Tax is an example of decline. IMPEACH TRUMP a LOSER
Well of course! But let them have it. Is 70% enough?
Sure they do. They will give nothing to improve poor people and middle class living conditions. They exploit them. . That's why they are rish.
This makes me feel all warm and fuzzy inside! Kinda like the thought of having a BUCB Combo from JackInTheBox to satisfy a midnight craving.
And the sun rises in the east. No shit!
Breaking news.
That’s news? 😂😂😂
Of course they do. It just proves she's right.
That means it's a good idea.
Of course they do, rich people are usually very greedy.
Because they are the architects of the new Gilded Age - and having to pay their fair share in taxes is an anathema. They are busy keeping their boots on the necks of those working to get by. To Sociopaths - it's funny to think that working people deserve a decent life.
Great! Let’s make it happen
Good. Fuck em. It's not supposed to make them happy.
Ike negotiated cooperative funding from the wealthy for his WWII recovery efforts then used marginal tax rates to appropriate funds. AOC wants to “impose” extreme marginal tax rates on the wealthy, because negotiation is unmillennial.
Duh!
as a guy who is not even close to a millionaire this is ignorant people don't understand, when you take away the carrot the donkey stops pulling the cart w out incentive there is no innovation let alone economic success the people who support her are mental midgets
Well of course they do, duh. 🤨
We can end the shutdown, here on Twitter. RT this until is becomes a movement. It just has to get out there. If TSA employees ALL call in sick one day, air travel will halt. Trump will have no choice. TSAsickday Not a strike. ONE DAY. SOTU day. January 29. I FBR, too.
And a 40 year freeze on 30%
We're all going to die in 12 years anyway, so what's the point?
In other news, the rabbits hate the fence I put up around my garden to keep them from eating everything...
Well there's only about 2200 of them, so fuck what they think.
Poor babies.
Of course they do.
how profound! did you have to go to Davos to get that scoop? of course they don't like it. maybe you need to do a little critical thinking about why they're scared of a frosh Congrssperson. AOC TheResistance StayWoke WheresMitch ImpeachTheMF PowerToThePeople
Os the USA represented in Davos?
DUH!
I wish every headline, tweet and article would specify ‘70% of income over 10 mil. ‘ not present as if it’s a flat rate. No one needs to make more than 10 million a year.
Ha. I love that the big bros are really a bunch of scaredy-cats. Go .AOC !!
Of course, Billionaires will object to a 70 percent tax on the rich. What do you think they were going to do given their propensity to be selfish?
Of course they do. They are sociopathic parasites.
I'd love to make it to the point where I make 10 mil per year and have to pay only 70%
They think it's a joke. Because it is.
70 % it's nothing? 100 % that's right Billionaires , not less than that. They make their fortunes, enslaving their own employees for misery and they have no human conscience towards anyone. for that reason they should pay 110 % of taxes. Reasonable.
Confirmed good idea.
Way to state the obvious .
Report it correctly. 70% MARGINAL TAX RATE. It’s much different than your headline and you should know better. AOC
Sensible thinking. So many billionaires give back in thousand of ways that are not always know and money in gov hands become wasted on slash funds for globalist agendas and grants for the most ridiculous middle school type projects and wasted on parking lots that are never used,
Good! Means she’s doing the right thing! They’ve assholes have bribed politicians for years so they don’t pay their fair share. Time to pay up!
They also hate paying workers reasonable wages and benefits.
This is literally her speech!
Who cares. It’s not law nor will it ever be.
Shocking, I expected them to line up and surrender their fortunes on the spot
Only 70%? I was thinking in 120% to say the least 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Dell: 'No, I am not supportive of that, and I don’t think it would help the growth of the U.S. economy. Name a country where that’s worked — ever.” MIT professor Erik Brynjolfsson: “the United States.” Yep, worked great in the 50s, 60s, and 70s- till Reagan's voodoo economics
aoc is the smartest being on planet earth. Thanks. Just for being you. Lol
After u make 10mil in a year and you can’t bring yourself to give 70% of every dollar you make thereafter (that’s what marginal tax rate means) to people who are barely making ends meet, you are missing the point human existence as a species
There is a reason they are called Robber Barons. They have been fighting a class war. Now that the working class is fighting back, they certainly object.
You can not tax your way into prosperity. People know better what to do with their money than governments. They just waste it with no remorse.
Acacia Cortez is still just a showboat nobody, she's not the sharpest stick in the fence
all 28 of them who have more wealth than 4 billion people? got it.
After u make 10mil in a year if you can’t bring yourself to give 70% of every dollar you make thereafter (that’s what marginal tax rate means) to people who are barely making ends meet, you are missing the point of the purpose of the human existence as a species
Cry me a River.
Cool.
well, that’s confirmation AOC is right
When will the selling of U.S. Uranium to Russkies be investigated
No kidding! Like her proposals will ever become anything.....
Ha! Then she's right on track!
SAD....😪
Is the an actual story or did you borrow this from the Onion?
That's a shocker.
Well that's the biggest vote of confidence she could have hoped for. Must mean she's on the right track.
You actually got see her titties like Denzel girl
Okay we should totally back off then
Oops aoc no future billionaire campaign contributions
But..but how will they be able to send their kids to elementary school in limousines?
Good.
Including Jeff Bezos who's also the owner of this News outlet.
This is a positive development. And amazing journalism
Alright tax them at 70% and then they will fire us all....gotta be a better way
Wrestlers everywhere are grateful for her assault on ringworm....
Hahaha.....she is pretty smart.
