Offical Alexandria Ocasio Cortez thread

[Mighty_Windir]

I vote we distribute her whole current salary with people with needs, in equal parts...she gets the same as all other beneficiaries.

True equality right there

[GhostofDempsey]

I wish I worked in an industry where I could vote myself a raise. I guess that $174K she is making isn't enough to accommodate her upscale lifestyle she was accustomed to growing up in affluent Bronxville NY...not the Bronx.

On a side note, Pelosi earns $223K per year, and she's worth about $200M, makes perfect sense, lol.

Socialists love giving your money away, but they make sure they suck up very cent they can get their own hands on.

How else do you think these people become worth tens/hundreds of millions of dollars making low 6-figure incomes for a couple decades as public 'servants'.

[Larry the boss]

how dare someone with a job want to make more money, that is unheard of

[Lomasexual]

Politicians and public servants should have their pay automatically indexed to the cost of living, no more and no less.

In real terms they don't get richer or poorer. If they want to earn more (in real terms) then they have to get a promotion, do something like overtime, do other work on the side, or change jobs.

You cant be serious. She just got a raise and a BIG one at that.

Tell that to Ms Ocasio-Cortez.

She's been blasting private sector people for being paid too much, while she herself makes over the median income and yet is demanding an even bigger, taxpayer funded, salary.
