She brings nothing to the table except the desire to instruct how to take more.
Yes, I'm biased. Been there.

Yeah you're biased because you're old.
If you were young you'd realize a lot of **** AOC talks about are legitimate struggles of younger people
Fact: Home ownership among millenials and younger is becoming a pipe dream for many, as housing costs are skyrocketing
Fact: Boomers had cheap housing compared to their wages
Fact: Boomers enjoyed cheap education and 'they could work part time' to pay for their tuition
Fact: Most millenials have massive amounts of student debt and that amount is increasing every year. Americans owe over $1.56 trillion in student loan debt, spread out among about 45 million borrowers. That’s about $521 billion more than the total U.S. credit card debt.
Fact: Wages have not kept up with cost of living increases in housing/healthcare/education for over 30 years no matter which clown was in office
Fact: Student debt is not only preventing millenials from home ownership, it's preventing marriage and families. If this trend continues white people will be minorities in america; in many states in elementary schools they already are.
Fact: The 1% increased their wealth by 400% since 2009
Fact: Boomers and Gen X were much wealthier than millenials when they were all the same age due to lack of student debt
But go ahead and keep putting your head in the sand and ignoring the struggles that young people are facing today. If young people keep getting ****ed while the select few boomers hoard all the money, things will balance out eventually:
