For some perhaps, but I think the extreme is just as stupid and unaware.

i would bet she doesnt even realize she is being used. She probably thinks her "ideas" (if you could call them that) are being taken seriously.

A useless idiot to humanity but a useful idiot to them.

I think she is doing marketing researcch for the dems. They are getting to see what the blowback is. That way they can do the research without damaging any of their REAL proposed candidates. She is too young to run for president anyway, so she is a (stupid) throwaway candidate.

So far, aside from the 8% that have been made in that image...it's an epic fail!

She is also a trial balloon to show the dems how far they can go to the left and get away with it in 2020

That she did...

But, AOC won. She helped pull down capitalism and business. That was her goal

Agreed

That was my second choice.

An interesting bit of history about New York City:

Two major factors propelled New York City to its prominence both in the early 1800's and today. Most people are familiar with the many ships which unloaded immigrants onto Ellis Island and swelled local populations. Though many chose to move on to the frontiers of Ohio, some chose to stay and build up what would quickly become the largest city in the nation. The second factor is less well-known and hearkens back to the origins of the New York Stock Exchange and Wall Street. Wall Street originally started as a broker for... Southern, slave-grown cotton. In the early 1800's after the development of the cotton gin, cotton quickly became the largest export staple in the United States. For whatever reason, the brokers congregated in New York City probably due to the shipping lines and communication times from their largest customer: England. And for a time, cotton was actually the largest single commodity shipped in the world.

The trouble with that kind of negotiation is that only giant companies get anything from it. The rules and taxes that would screw the company if the deal weren't made are left in place for every small business in the city.

This is how capitalism got its undeserved bad name.

We need a national constitutional ban on all such government discretion. And while we're at it, on government owning or subsidizing things like sports stadia.

As a bonus, it would mean most of the lobbying industry would have to find honest work.

Same opinion for different reasons I bet.

AAAA...Yep!

Should me dino move from my satellite city to neighboring Birmingham even here in Alabama, my vote would be beat for being part of a conservative minority.
As for a voting minority, it's the same in New York City.

Good one...

Add, “Who is John Galt?” and it’s made complete.

Would you have imagined that would have been tweeted by someone from the city?

Yeah, Capitalism makes, Socialism takes.

That is a real billboard! Although I do not agree with choosing winners and losers with our tax money, I have to admit, as long as they are offering enticements...why not negotiate for the best deal.


Although, and I can't believe I am in agreement with alexandria occasional cortex (yes you read that correctly) These corporations have all the money they need to purchase land and build their own buildings...they really don't need our help.
They should get a fair deal on taxation and I can't blame them for that.
