Michael Graham — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s fiscal vision adds up – to trillions

Summary:
So longer just "socialist"! Now it is "pseudo-communist." Some people are becoming really unhinged! No wonder she wants to criminalize Michael Bloomberg’s wealth (though not his politics or campaign contributions) and supports something called “Modern Monetary Theory” — which says that every time the government spends but only collects in taxes to pay for it, you’re actually up two bucks. MMT says that the government owes it to the people to just keep printing money to pay for all the stuff they want. (Seriously. Google it.) Confiscating wealth, printing unlimited money, free stuff for everyone and no fiscal responsibility?

No wonder she wants to criminalize Michael Bloomberg’s wealth (though not his politics or campaign contributions) and supports something called “Modern Monetary Theory” — which says that every time the government spends $10 but only collects $8 in taxes to pay for it, you’re actually up two bucks. MMT says that the government owes it to the people to just keep printing money to pay for all the stuff they want. (Seriously. Google it.)
Confiscating wealth, printing unlimited money, free stuff for everyone and no fiscal responsibility?
ROFLMAO.
