Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (Sandy Cortez) has made a reputation for being a “Democratic socialist.”
This means, among other improprieties, she wants to increase taxes on the rich and “redistribute” that wealth to the lower classes.
This from thepatriotjournal.com.
That is why her constituents keep voting for her. But does she follow her own demands?
She has been known to party at gala events, alongside the rich and famous. And now, we learn that she has been refusing to pay a state tax—from over five years ago.
Imagine what her constituents think of this fine kettle of fish AOC has thrown together.
From Washington Examiner:
New York state filed a tax warrant against Brook Avenue Press, a children-focused publishing house Ocasio-Cortez founded in 2012, on July 6, 2017, to collect $1,618 in unpaid corporate taxes. Ocasio-Cortez has yet to pay a penny of her overdue corporate taxes, causing the current balance of the tax warrant to swell by 52% to $2,461 as of Wednesday afternoon…
Ocasio-Cortez initially pledged to repay her delinquent corporate tax bill, but her office later said the warrant was issued “in error” and that she was contesting the matter.
AOC, a “Democratic socialist” has been racking up fines over an unpaid state tax. The tax was related to her now-defunct publishing business.
Over the last five years, the fine has gone from $1,618 to $2,461, thanks to additional fees and interest.
Even if it is “in error,” why not pay it? Won’t the money go to help minorities and the poor?
Or does AOC know, like the rest of us, that taxes rarely go to helping the poor? Instead, the money is squandered by a wasteful and corrupt bureaucracy that exists to take care of itself.
What is AOC’s point of not paying this past-due tax? Could it be that she sees herself of the ruling class and above such trivialities?
Well, whether this is true or not the issue will certainly become a noteworthy campaign item for her opponent this fall.
AOC will have to answer that question to the many New Yorkers who are waiting for her promised welfare and support.
Could congress possibly see the backside of AOC for the final time this coming November?
Tina Forte will be on the GOP ticket against AOC this fall. And Ms. Forte will be running on a promise to stop ‘Radical Socialists from Destroying the American Dream.’
God speed to Tina Forte.
And God speed to Conservatism.
