Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez beclowned herself once again with this piping-hot take on wages at LaGuardia:
Croissants at LaGuardia are going for SEVEN DOLLARS A PIECE
Yet some people think getting a whole hour of personal, dedicated human labor for $15 is too expensive??

If being stupid were a crime, AOC would be serving like 68 consecutive life sentences.
Honestly hope, for her sake, this is an April Fool's Joke.

This is not a drill:
GOP taking every tweet so earnestly, making my point for me. It’s not an argument against the price of a croissant - it’s about the value of human worth.
But I guess that idea is foreign to them since their policies treat people as disposable anyway

First of all, what exactly is “the value of human worth”?
Snort. AOC’s command of the English language rivals only her command of basic economics. Which is to say, words are hard for her. She really doesn’t seem to realize what she’s saying.
The value of human worth is $15 an hour? Really?

Human worth is $15 an hour? Dang.

So you place a $15 price tag on 'human worth'. Good to know

Your problem is that you equate human worth with wages. We pay for labor based on the value the labor creates. This has nothing to do with human value. An unemployed person is just as valuable as a CEO. That doesn't mean they create the same economic value.

Stop making sense!
If this is true, why do you think human lives are only worth $15 an hour?

Perhaps don’t tie human worth to anything else but what do I know.

We reckon you know a hell of a lot more than AOC about why minimum wage increases can lead to price increases.
And speaking of human worth …
You are from a state that passed a bill that allows full term infants to be murdered. You might want to sit down. https://twitter.com/aoc/status/1112747376308113408?s=21 …

Member of the political party that advocates for infanticide wants to talk about the “value of human worth” and treating people as “disposable,” story later.

She should sit everything out, but especially this. Just when you think she’s stepped on every rake, she goes and steps on another one. And then blames Republicans when she’s called out!
The gall of this is incredible. Paraphrased @AOC: "If you don't believe the government should force people to pay other people $15/hour, you don't put value on human worth and treat people as disposable. Also, stop taking every tweet of mine so earnestly!"

I'm not a Republican. In fact, for most of my life I was a registered Democrat, till I became NPA. That said, even I thought your tweet was ridiculous. Have a nice day. 😂— Jess Clackum (@JessicaClackum) April 1, 2019
"My point wasn't about croissants, it was about how my political opponents are inhumane and cruel."
Way to steer into the skid.

If she were self-aware, we might actually think she realizes how much of a willfully dishonest moron she is. But she’s flakier than a LaGuardia croissant.
Why do you even listen to me, she asked.

So we should take @AOC literally, but not so earnestly... or maybe not literally... seriously?
Anyway, BRB: gotta go treat some people as disposable.

AOC doesn’t need the GOP’s help to undermine her own arguments. She does a fine job of that herself.
Not only are you a moron, your use of "GOP" in place of "everyone who disagrees with me" is another example of your flimsy intellect.
You should really consider going back to tending bar.

AOC is a Marxist by her belief system of economics, but she's probably too ignorant to realize that. She's one of many who think all business owners are rich jerks who shd be made to pay their employees their fair share. Her ignorance or stupidity rivals Hank Johnson, the Alabama Democratic Representative who was afraid sending more Marines to Guam might make it tip over.
