#2 Power and control, central to all commies. You exist to serve the state and the state's interest.

#3 So where's the incentive to earn those highly taxed extra dollars? I'd imagine the accountants among the commenters are chortling softly to themselves.

#4 And all the pro athletes are cheering her on....or not.

She really is a despicable idiot.

#5 A person who claims that $10M is enough typically does not possess the qualities and abilities essential to earn $10M.

#6 The scary thing about AOC is that she is not typical of hers generation - she's one of their best and brightest.

#7 After narrowly surviving the '60s, I learned one thing: the "best and the brightest" -- ain't!

#9 There's reports she doesn't live in her district. We should keep one liberal around to show everyone how crazy they are. I vote for her to be on display in the capital in a glass jar.

#10 I've been told she has a degree in economics from BU. It's clearly not worth the paper it's printed on.

#11 There's reports she doesn't live in her district.

Per Silentbrick, this from today’s New York Post (actually from late yestreday, but it would have appeared in print this morning):

She may be America’s most famous freshman congresswoman, but in New York, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a virtual ghost.

She has no district office and no local phone number, unlike the state’s three other freshman members.

And it’s unclear whether the 29-year-old lawmaker, who represents the Bronx and Queens, actually still lives in the Parkchester neighborhood that has been so closely tied to her rise — even though she won her upset victory over fellow Democrat Rep. Joe Crowley with accusations that his home in Virginia made him too Washington-focused to serve his district.

Ocasio-Cortez has used her deceased father’s Bronx condo on her voter registration since 2012, and even posed in the one-bedroom Bronx flat for celebrity photographer Annie Leibovitz in a Vogue magazine profile after her stunning November election. But The Post could find little indication she continues to live there.

#12 There is nothing stopping any liberal multi millionaire earner from donating their money to the great cause of big GIVERNMENT. OBama, Oprah, Buffett, Gates... can be the first to donate.

#13 your ten millionth and one dollar gets taxed at 70%,

Let's conduct this experiment on Bezos, Zuck, Dorsey and the Google boys and see what happens.
