AOC's Mother Left New York, Fleeing To Florida To Escape High Taxes

So for jacking up federal level taxes, what does AOC think American billionaires and millionaires will do to escape losing enormous amounts of money to pay for socialism?
After all, rich folks can certainly afford to move anywhere in the whole wide world.

    Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez came from a casting call, and was hand picked out of 10,000 applicants. She admits this and so do the ones who control her - The Justice Democrats . These are the socialist who created her. They are proud of what they have done, and can't help but gloat about it.

      Me dino read about that. AOC is an actor playing her part off a script written by the socialist Justice Democrats, who has been pulling this wiry puppet's strings from the start.
      Should AOC not work out, she will be discarded for someone else or perhaps even a whole troupe of actors, running against the incumbents of both the House and Senate.

        Bait and switch. The Dems will let her fly around, doing her loose-cannon thing, then pull her out of contention at the last minute with "She's an obvious wacko. Wouldn't you like a more moderate, sensible candidate like Bernie instead. What a Nice Guy!".

      Yes, that is obvious, backed by online videos.

      Cortez has been selected just as Hussein was selected. And Macron and Juncker.

      They are the puppets automatically rehearsing what was programmed into them.

      Manchurian candidates at a new level.

        OK.
        Now we have complained about it. How do we replicate it with some Freedom Justice Candidates?

          Recognition is the first step toward solution.

          We discussed it before. We have the chance to change things at the ballot box.

          Eliminating the swamp is up to our "leaders".

    Several good messages here, one is the tribute to Blanca Ocasio-Cortez (AOC’s mother).
    She became a widow, owed $50,000 on the mortgage, to cope she worked two jobs 6am to 11pm.
    I assume that under the NY:
    1) high tax and 2) high benefits for poor families, she got the first part but not the second.

    reminds me of Canadians that live near our border. they love their government freebies but shop in the US to avoid paying the high prices that pay for their freebies.

    AOC is just a marketing person voicing a script to do marketing research for the dems. I doubt she believes anything she says

      I tend to think that, too. As I said earlier...I think she's some sort of plant, or operative. Nobody can be that slick and stupid at the same time...

        She is too young to run for president, she is just testing the waters for how far the dems can go left. I rourke will win dem primary, defeating OG Biden

    You want to see the most wealth you'll ever see - in the form of houses, golf, skiing and cars? Go to the area including Incline Village, South Reno (Montreux), east Lake Tahoe. You can see all these billionaires who've set up their homesteads there. Oh, they made their money in Silicon Valley. But, they wouldn't dare have a California address. I'm serious...I've never seen homes like that. Was playing on Montreux golf course last year and the caddy pointed to a massive brick home tucked in the trees, "That's Warren Buffet's niece's home." The place makes Beverly Hills look like Stockton... No income tax in NV...

    Something about this story doesn't make sense. If Blanca Cortez was not paying on her mortgage. She certainly wasn't paying her property tax either. Why would she make that comparison? I think AOC is mindless twit but this story seems strange???
