It will be said soon, was the wealthiest nation with that mentality. That is a statement from someone who has never taken a class in finance or any study of the kind. We all know she has publicly demonstrated very limited reasoning ability if any at all.

Of course demons do not build, demonstrate against good things and rather be destructive.

She is over the top with her wants.

AOC WHO IS AOC? Maybe she is the court jester. Maybe the white house pet, but she doesn't get punish for biting or misbehaving. She needs to go to behavioral counseling.

Becoming the wealthiest country in the world wasn’t achieved by careless overspending AOC arbitrary unfit unqualified ignorant socialism frugality debt taxes FAIL

AOC has 💩 for brains.

Ya make it 20 trillion doesn't cost a dime it's just printing

We're the wealthiest nation in the world? We have quite the negative net worth to be considered the wealthiest. I'm actually worth more than the U.S. if we're looking at net worth.

Since it is apparent now that we can just pull the money out of the Jolly Green Giant's butthole, why not make it 10 bajaquadrillion?

10T? sounds like she pulled that out her back side, I think everyone wants to do something big outside of the politics however u also don't want to create excess and waste it's a balancing act, Also money is not unlimited can only do so much at a time

Ignorance is so blissful huh?

Sweet Merciful Jeebus. You can pave the entire nation with nickels and still have enough left over to fill up the grand canyon for TEN TRILLION dollars. They just making up numbers now.

I agree on infrastructure plan, but 10 what?

How hard was the fight just to get stimulus checks? We should have another $2k in May. People are still not caught up with their winter bills.

Make it 100 zillion and ill take 10 of it. Thx u

Does AOC know a Trillion is a lot of money? For 2.2T the government could buy Apple. Can we all just think this through a little more?

STOP GIVING THIS LUNATIC ATTENTION

Unless it includes huge tax cuts for billionaires and money for oil companies the republicans will never support it.

This is a stupid woman! To make it even worse, she suppose to have an 'economics degree'. It's bewildering.

Just saying

A focus on one part of her states housing issue w/out citing HUDs existing budget. Biden is Prez of all states, not just NY. Swinging too high. Not a true sense of the size & scope of Part 1 of 2 proposals (next one due in April) & Biden has 4 years to roll out HIS agenda.

STOP SHORT SELLING - That's how you help businesses to survive without government's help. Investors will also survive without stimulus. This will stop national debt from getting so high and the dollar value going down the drain. STOP SHORT SELLING

I don’t care what a junior representative who couldn’t understand the Amazon plan in NYC thinks.

Whoa there, girl. Look, I love your enthusiasm to make the opportunities this country offers available to everyone, but sssslllow down on the wish listing, mkay? Dream big but keep it realistic

I notice Biden is doing the macho infrastructure plan Obama got cajoled out of. Rather than diverting money away from infrastructure and to education and healthcare in order to please all the ladies who got expensive gut humanities degrees and now need jobs working as Nazis.

CCP need you.

Shouldn’t she be clinging to a fence in Texas crying her eyes out?

Sure it's not enough,but it's a start.dont get greedy at this moment.patience will win in long run.

Couple trillion here ... couple trillion there ... eventually your gonna start talking about real money.

Why not 100T ?

AOC 10Trill....Whew! cashdollabillsyo

Crazy I what crazy does

We won't be the wealthiest doing the new green deal

Send it

Love this woman! Any man or female that weds this intelligent gorgeous woman will be lucky. She’s going to someday be president of the United States.

Why can't these elected officials work with what you can get. It is better than nothing for the last 4 years. Get to work and stop complaining about every single thing. Do your job.

❤️

The Republicans are willing to let the country fall apart We are so far behind and need to bring America into the Future

MONEY IS STUPID!! Spend As MUCH AS IT TAKES To Give Humanity A Wonderful Existence - The RICH People Sure Don't Mind Giving Themselves Tax BREAKS!!! GMAFB! Wake Up People !!

Un-fucking-real but totally in character...it will be a herculean task to get anything through Congress. Nothing is enough for the petulant children...

LOL. AOC works for the far right as controlled opposition. Saikat. Peter Thiel. Cenk. Roger Stone. It's never enough for her. That's what Moscow wants from her.

What I would say to Ocasio-Cortez is this, you can always make another bill after this one passes for different things. I do think we need to help seniors but adding that to infrastructure is confusing. However, just throwing numbers out there is not helping either.

How can we call a country and government that can't balance an annual budget 'The wealthiest nation?'

This infrastructure bill is just the same old neoliberal moderate bullshit we been doing. We live in a plutocracy.

10T can they even raise that kind of money? The Infrastructure plan is good but needs some funding or else it will just be an unrealized plan.
