Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is telling us what the new unhinged Statist wing of the Democrats want to do (via Twitchy)
A few social media ideas for public servants looking to build an audience:
– Endorse Single-Payer Medicare for All
– Hold Wall Street Accountable
– Make Min Wage = Living Wage
– Cancel Puerto Rican Debt
– End For-Profit Prisons & ICE Detention
– Fight for a #GreenNewDeal— Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) January 2, 2019
And that Green Deal?
What the deal "entails”:
— "Gender-based justice”
— Racial reparations
— Universal income
— Medicare for All …https://t.co/73xfyuUiNo https://t.co/6clqoO9QCC— Tom Elliott (@tomselliott) January 3, 2019
He’s not kidding. Let’s check Section 6 (B) in that file
(i) provide all members of our society, across all regions and all communities, the opportunity, training and education to be a full and equal participant in the transition, including through a job guarantee program to assure a living wage job to every person who wants one- (iv) ensure a ‘just transition’ for all workers, low-income communities, communities of color, indigenous communities, rural and urban communities and the front-line communities most affected by climate change, pollution and other environmental harm including by ensuring that local implementation of the transition is led from the community level and by prioritizing solutions that end the harms faced by front-line communities from climate change and environmental pollution;
- (v) protect and enforce sovereign rights and land rights of tribal nations;
- (vi) mitigate deeply entrenched racial, regional and gender-based inequalities in income and wealth (including, without limitation, ensuring that federal and other investment will be equitably distributed to historically impoverished, low income, deindustrialized or other marginalized communities in such a way that builds wealth and ownership at the community level);
- (vii) include additional measures such as basic income programs, universal health care programs and any others as the select committee may deem appropriate to promote economic security, labor market flexibility and entrepreneurism; and
- (viii) deeply involve national and local labor unions to take a leadership role in the process of job training and worker deployment.
Once again, it looks like the “greens” are really about red: call it socialism, communism, Marxism, Progressivism, whatever, it’s all the same thing, using ‘climate change’ and a bit of environmentalism to push hardcore leftist beliefs.
Number 5 is a howler: the same people who want to protect sovereign rights and land rights of Indians want the complete opposite for our borders and protection for illegal aliens, as well as telling everyone how they handle their own property. Remember the Waters of The U.S. rule?
