THE FAR (OUT) SIDE

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez [AOC] (why is it that most assassins have double barrelled names?) is doing a hatchet job on the US and trying to reinvent it into a socialist state something like those exampples of Utopia that have gone before; USSR, China, Cambodia, Cuba, Zimbabwe, Venezuela et al...is this a good idea?
Many millennial's think so...but that is because they are an under-educated, self obsessed, narcissistic, exceptionally pampered and ill mannered generation and these are my observations afforded before I begin to criticise them...of course all generations have good and bad, but currently the bad appears to be outweighing the good and that's bad.

AOC's latest brain fart:

Finally, she settled on her most damning line of attack: America as it currently stands is "garbage," because in the United States, "if you don't have a job, you are left to die."
That's an odd critique given the long history of death associated with socialism -- some 45 million deaths under Mao, some 30 to 40 million under Stalin and some 2 million under Pol Pot, for starters. But it's an even odder critique given the fact that life expectancy has radically increased under capitalism: In 1850, the average European life expectancy was 36.3 years, while today, the average life expectancy across Europe stands at approximately 80. Furthermore, the United States currently boasts effective full employment. Our poor are in danger of dying of obesity, not starvation. And we spend, on a state and federal level, at least $1.1 trillion per year on means-tested welfare programs. By census data, that amounts to nearly $9,000 per household in the United States annually, or nearly $28,000 for every person living in poverty in the United States.[BS]

The West is in an existential war against neo-socialism and those on the right side (pun intended) had better wake up.
