    No but no harm has been done by AOC. I suspect I'll be long dead before any of what she & or her puppeteers want.to see happen would ever see the passage of legislation that would compare to what Venezuelan's are experiencing.
    I lived thru the time when Nixon froze prices and it wasn't pretty.

    @Bob Kirk
    And I lived through the time, as a service station dealer, when the notices came in the mail curtailing gasoline deliveries to 50% of each month's orders of the year previous. And the 55 mph speed limit imposition. And the order that the Las Vegas "Strip" turn off it's lights at midnight (that one lasted a month or two!).

    Most Republicans love her, or are, at least, amused by her. She's the funniest thing since Hank Johnson, who is, I think, still in office, although they don't let him talk anymore.

    Quite true for each day it seems as though she has something to say or write that should be found in a Reader’s digest under, “Laughter, The Best Medicine”.
    There are times though, when I find that I absolutely must do without my daily dose of humor and attempt to find some sanity in it’s stead but alas, with her as the media’s darling, it is indeed hard to find.

    The speaker started with the premise that Communism and Socialism are the same, but then goes on to show that they are not. He claims that Communism is the goal of Socialism...which means they are not the same but are part of a sequence.

    She is an honorable woman, elected by New Yorkers, to the congress of the
    United States, the Honorable Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez. She beat out some important
    Yahoo who thought he couldn't be touched. We can bad mouth her and belittle her as uncivil men will. I don't know why. Bad manners. Ignorance, afraid our skin will turn brown, our eyes black. The pilgrims have landed and after these many years their influence is ended or waned. Of course I 'm wrong, We all are good Americans. I must have misunderstood. We never were alike or in agreement about anything, all through our history. We're just a bunch of ill couthed exports from somewhere else, laying claim to someone else's country, several generations removed. Concerned the same will happen again only to us. Or not.

    Hey, I love her, Bill. I wish she were eligible to run for president. In fact, I'm wondering if she knows she isn't. Anyhow, Republicans love her. Now, if she were a Republican, I'd be upset with her, but as long as she's representing the Democrat Party, I wish her well.

    Good, i was so afraid you wouldn't like her. Be like my good brother in law who says, "Them damn liberals, I hate 'em all."
    And please don't tell her she can run for president. No telling what she might do. The Repubs had, I think twenty that Trump
    beat out in 2016. The Dems may be trying to out do them but so far they have no one who can win. She's a liberal, you're safe.
