Why the Democrat Leadership, and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, embrace socialism
In every socialist country, those who hand out government cheese live large, while those receiving “free” government cheese are trapped in poverty and forced to prostitute their vote to socialist leaders to survive.
Witness Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who now lives large with an annual salary of $174,000 and about another $110,000 in fringe benefits [retirement plans, top of the shelf medical, paid vacations, etc.] bringing her annual earnings up to about $285,000. And what is the average salary of her congressional district’s constituents? It’s under $60,000. But even with such a huge difference between AOC’s salary and her constituents, one of the first things AOC wanted as a member of Congress was to give herself and members of Congress a $4,500 cost of living increase and increase her constituents’ taxes to pay for it.
While Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the rest of the Democrat Leadership promises free socialist cheese to get elected, its seems quite clear they are the only ones who receive that cheese which is financed by confiscatory taxes imposed on their constituents.
The Democrat Party Leadership has been angry, stupid and obnoxious ever since the Republican Party Leadership freed democrat owned slaves. ___ Author unknown
