Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez | SXSW 2019
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 сер 2024
- As New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez continues to galvanize the left (and frustrate the right), what’s driving her unique appeal has become an increasingly compelling question. Is it her identity or her substantive politics? Or both?
Ocasio-Cortez's embrace of democratic socialism has been emphasized by the right, which seeks to paint her as out of touch with mainstream American values. But arguably, it's her progressive ideals that provide the basis for a human-centered politics that connect with a majority of Americans.
The Intercept's Senior Politics Editor Briahna Gray will talk to Ocasio-Cortez about identity, the race/class divide, and how these factors are likely to play out in the years ahead.

i'm from italy and it's the first American politician I can say I admire. She's such an inspiration.... amazing human being...
@Sappho Are you prepared to give up air travel for yourself and family and your gasoline burning vehicle?
@Sappho Do you think Ocasio- Cortez would have replied in a similar way as you did? Your response shows that your're lacking in the area of intelligence. My name is my name, try TeamUSA.
@Sappho Your face SUS, I think it Photoshop.
@Sappho Your FACE still SUS. And you're too LAZY to look up my name on Team USA.
Dope head.
Fox News told me she was a bartender who accidentally became a congress woman... I think she has the goods to become president one day.
NPC Trailer Switch, Celebrity NPC yes she tended bar after she graduated from Boston University Cum Laude. She also coached the Northeastern Collegiate World Series. FOX painted her as just some bartender from the Bronx. She is much more than that
Rather an economics graduate and congress woman to be forced to be a bartender to support her family after the sudden death of her father. I guess Fox News didn't tell you that part...
@WWG1WGA! USA jeez you're stupid.
You can't even spell swear words
@NPC Trailer Switch, Celebrity NPC are you aware of the concept of nuance? Do you understand it ?
@Kit Johnson of course she would be so much better if she was born with massive amounts wealth and squandered most of it on gold plated toilet seats
She's got my vote, and I've been working in the Oil & Gas industry for about 18yrs now...
❤️
She is like " a breath of fresh air, " in the whole corrupt, inept political system.!! The Corporate Democrats will oppose her as well as the Corporate Republicans. They work for Big Business, not the people who voted them into Office!! Bastards!!
And I like you Andrew!
really?? she looked scary to me when she speaks. the look of stalin, the look that tells u if u disagree with her, here come the firing squat. this woman scare me with her idea, her demeanor . i aint voting for this crazy lunatic woman.
@andrew miller i never said that! who the heck are those ?
The fact that AOC is ok calling out her own party for their participation in the deterioration of democracy and power of special interest and lobbying tells you a ton about who she is. She’s a woman of the people man and I love it. She’s not a politician and I pray she stays Jenny from the block.
check out "The brains behind AOC Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez" by youtuber Mr Reagan, its even more inspiring
Don't get it TWISTED She's HIGH SHELF INTELLIGENCE NOT 💩 J-LO I.Q..!
She hasn't been on the block since age 5. She's Jenny from the upper-middle-class suburbia lol.
A politician who is a person of the people, exactly how does this benefit you and/or me? Personally, I prefer my political leaders smarter, better educated, more honest and more accomplished (in the private sector, lol) than average.
She is interesting though, having won both Hispanic Economist of the Year and Worst Economist of the Year awards.
a woman of the people? wow for many peoples sake i wish she was. Sadly your mistaken.
So authentic and simply impressive. There is hope for the US
Please read Broken Government - Author John W. Dean, Legal Adviser of the Republican President Richard Nixon …”The Republican agenda has proven itself to be an agenda of special interests rather than of the public interests, the scheme of a party whose primary aim is to maintain its power whatever the cost …” Washington Post remarked, “At its core, the book argues that the growing power of social and neo-conservatives within the Republican Party has created an army of guileless followers…”

@Bob Mama nope sleep just fine
Amazon blocked it... surprise...…
yes, it's up and it's still bad.
LOL you keep being the gullible dupe you are, mkay?
Sad to see so many in the comments have lost freedom of thought to the special interests she mentioned pitching us against one another. Instead of attacking other people, if you truly disagree with a person's politics, throw out alternatives to those policies you disagree with. There's nothing productive about calling an accomplished Congresswoman at 29 "stupid," and saying nothing she is proposing will work without 1. elaborating on which policies you mean and 2. supporting that view with real evidence is also politically divisive and won't contribute to any conversation.
Well said.
I think she's an idiot. Why? Because her math is fuzzy and has been consistently debunked, Anderson Cooper even pulled her up on that. She has no realistic way of paying for all the "free stuff" she wants. I don't believe she's really studied or even respects the Constitution, she couldn't even name the three branches of government correctly. She makes brazen claims like "unemployment's low because everyone has two jobs", that's not true, and "The world is going to end in 12 years" which is really not a very responsible or even accurate thing to say. She likened Ben Shapiro's respectful debate challenge to catcalling. She didn't have to accept his challenge of course, it's her right to decline, but likening it to catcalling was utterly pathetic. She doesn't seem to understand the concept of a tax cut and proudly boasts about killing Amazon's new development which would have created 25,000 new good paying jobs for the city. Do I think the rich should pay more? Yes, I think the federal income tax for the top ppl can be raised a bit, but not to the amount her and Bernie are talking about because that will just run everyone out of town and the economy will stall. So lets say we bump it up that tax rate a bit, it's currently sitting at 37%, Clinton had it at 40% and things were good, so lets say we try a little over 40, maybe 45% tops? I think putting a tax on wall street speculation like Bernie suggested could work. How about looking for new forms of revenue? I think sports betting should be legalized nationwide. Did you know when Jesse Ventura was Governor of Minnesota, he said underground sports betting netted around 20 to 30 billion annually in his state alone. Now imagine if you did that nationwide? You that would generate HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of dollars. Legalize prostitution too. Lift the embargo on Cuba and get trade happening post haste, let Americans visit the island from their own shores rather than going via Canada or Mexico, that'd generate a nice little sum just for Florida alone. You add all that up alone and I reckon you'd be close to a trillion dollars. I know there are some things I could agree with her on, but overall she's too left-wing and clueless. I have more respect for Bernie who can defend his hard left positions and is happy to debate anyone, whereas she couldn't debate a corpse. That's my two cents and I hope I've been more constructive and articulate than some of her other critics.
I don't think she's stupid, but she's incredibly and painfully naive to the point of arrogant. Her naivete is sadly on display because of her mouth and weird fame. Congress, especially the House, is about collaboration and consensus, not lone wolves being media attention whores. By all accounts, she works well with only a select few others, and even has disregarded authority because she somehow thinks she's entitled to do so. Her accomplishments in getting there should be applauded with pause (her comments about Crowley of late are really shitty), but now that she's there, she better learn that she's one of 435.
@@ForeverBennett okay, you do make a point that she is fuzzy on numbers but overall I agree with her concepts. Use our country's great wealth to fund the problems our citizens are having at home, not subsidising the wealthy and funding unnecessary wars. What is a fact is even in a time of great economic growth is that the wealth gap continues increasing. I think most people should be able to support the idea that the wealth gap should be decreasing, not increasing. Even if people working two jobs isn't the primary reason that unemployment is low, it's still a reality our workers our facing. I've seen too many stories of single parents having to work two jobs just to support their kids with no guranteed workers protection. I know people in my own life that are trying to get a second job to try to pull themselves out of their own situation. The truth about trickle down economics is that it's completely debunked. 80% of the gain in profits went towards stock buybacks, that, while increasing the stock market, immensely increased personal wealth. And the Amazon center is not a simple as you make it seem. She's NOT the reason they didn't built the facility. It was due to local opposition to the project that they simply could not continue construction. 1. People were mad their tax dollars were subsidising the project 2. The jobs created caused concern of long term gentrification of the neighborhood. Aka, with the people coming in to take the jobs, locals could no longer afford to live their and send their kids to school there, etc. Nothing is as straightforward as it seems. You detailed the challenges of her social programs but glossed over WHY locals opposed the Amazon project. Also I don't agree with how she handled Ben Shapiro if what you said is true, but I have no respect for Ben. He doesn't even recognize severe threat of climate change, and his debating style but lack of content in his thoughts makes it clear he is a pseudo-intellectual. But overall, I definitely don't agree she is an idiot, she also has an astounding way to rally support, but she could handle herself differently sometimes.
@mark navarro an idiot? I don't think I can convince you otherwise. But unaccomplished? She's the youngest woman in Congress and she made it without PAC money.
Free healthcare for all is the norm in Germany for a long time already. Why should it not be possible in the United States. It is an agreement of the people that humanitarian values matter.
the problem is there are lots of people choose not to lift a finger to do any job and the working ones are not really wanting to pay for their expense. i'm currently unemployed, i could get a job to get health care but why should i, i would have u working and pay for my health care and dental care and i am entitle to my free housing and food stamp also! i think u would be happy to pay more tax to take care of me right?
An Trinh i’m sorry but just because YOURE unemployed and unwilling to work doesn’t mean the majority of middle class americans aren’t. your personal example doesn’t speak for the rest of us
@@giocordova6481 lol u missed my point, what i mean is "if". AOC ideas are free college, free health care, free equal housing, free everything for everyone. they're not free, they're coming out of the tax paid citizens( residents). hard working people always wanna work to achieve financial wealth, but now they have to pay even more taxes to pay for everyone else who doesn't work , and the ones who don't work would most likely don't want to work, for them y work and pay big taxes, not working and still getting everything like always. i've never been not working, i've been working 2,3 full time jobs to put my wife through college, thanks god i don't have to do that no more since we paid off college fee. people said they can't find a job, that's strange to me, i always find work, it's just a matter of are u willing to work.
An Trinh the idea that people won’t work is utterly false, countries tax payer funded college and healthcare have equal if not the higher rates of productivity. just look at germany, denmark, and finland. you wouldn’t call those countries full of unemployment or laziness lol
@@giocordova6481 they're different people, and if u look at the U.S, there are plenty of folks who scamming and leaching off the system.
46:46 AOC is right. you can't change someone else's mind. you have to let them change their own mind.
present them with information and a different perspective, and if they care enough about the subject, they will research and come to new conclusions. they'll think they discovered it themselves.
@NPC Trailer Switch, Celebrity NPC Amazing, still believing IQ is worth literally anything. You're about as smart as the President, and believe me, that's not a compliment.
Thats a definition of manipulation
She is against flying but she flies. Against cow farts but eats beef. Against capitalism but set up her own LLc. Talks about white privledge but onl dates White men. And said it’s irresponsible to have children due to overpopulation. But once she finds that special white man to settle down with she will have a kid of her own. But don’t worry..... she won’t stop being hypocritical. I’d almost be more afraid if she actually did the things she suggests we do.... but at least I’d respect it. All she is is a professional virtue signaler
You are so right about that..
this must be one of the best interviews I've seen in years. AOC just keeps surprising how thorough and deep thinker she is.
@Bob Marley bob marley would be ashamed of you.
@Bob Marley what are you saying? Stay moderate and centrist?
@Bob Marley how do you expect to get an interview when nobody in the media are taking her seriously? That is why she has to rely on independent media..
@Bob Marley power is shifting due to demographic changes

A couple of good bits: “We should be excited about automation, because what it could potentially mean, is more time educating ourselves, more time creating art, more time investing and investigating in the sciences, more time focused on invention, more time going to space, and more time enjoying the world that we live in. Because, not all creativity needs to be bonded by wage, and I think that one of the reasons that this ideology or question of whether you want to call it ‘democratic socialism,’ or ‘techno-futurism,’ or whatever it is, it is because our technological advancement as a society has outpaced our system for handling finite resources, because now we are approaching infinite resources.”
“We have created artificial scarcity, and that is why we are driven to work 80 hours a week, when we are (currently) being our most productive at any point in American history. So, we should be working the least amount we’ve ever worked, if we were actually paid based on how much wealth we were producing . . . but, we’re not. WE’RE PAID ON HOW LITTLE WE’RE DESPERATE ENOUGH TO ACCEPT, AND THEN THE REST IS SKIMMED OFF AND GIVEN TO A BILLIONAIRE.”
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Representative (D-NY 14th District)

The ONLY "politician" I have felt morally in line with. AOC! Thank you 🙏... I have been trying to resonate with our government for 20 years. I feel I finally have a place where I can stand and feel authentic. Alongside AOC. I can see change for the better finally challenging all that we have been pushed down by.
She's a paid actress. Hired by a committee that wants to take over the DNC and promote the NWO! Wake up!
@@elan007 AOC does a good job so she should be paid.
I love how every time she answers a question she actually says something, she explains her answer and brings the point home. It's so refreshing to listen to her among all of the "political elite".
She sure does say something 😂
That's because she knows what she's talking about, and also doesn't have to generously shove bullshit into each sentence to make her logic work, a la Republicans.
That's one fantastic interview! AOC is already shaping the conversation, and I was about to say I wonder where she'll be in 5 years, but come to think of it, I've got a pretty good idea...
Hoping that 'income security for those unwilling to work' will work out for ya, bro? lol. Yeah, good luck with that.
Hoping she will be eradicated from politics. Socialism stifles motivation, innovation and inspiration. It has been tried and failed miserably. How many times do we have to see that the 'hand out' mentality is not good and ultimately harms people. No one is being 'left to die'. My goodness, we are literally taking care of illegals in this country! NAS has calculated that the net fiscal drain is $74,722 per illegal crosser. The world is not going to end in 12 years. Most of her sweeping rash generalizations leave her wide open to criticism. But wait, she really does not have to be correct as long as she sets herself on some moral high ground. Ownership of private property is a moral right in America. Her socialistic concepts would hope to strip people of that moral right.
Leader of the communist revolution
Deb Ammann It’s funny how you say the handout culture stifles hardwork and motivation, when the wealthy have time and again got the brunt of these “handouts”. It might not look like a check, more so huuuuuuuge tax breaks. I.e. Warren Buffett paying 11% capital gains tax and his secretary paying >30%. So reallly how much is that couple hundred dollar check to a poor family harming you in comparison to the billions and billions of dollars withheld by the rich and powerful.
@@mohammodarafat2026You can tax the billionaires 100% and it still won't pay for all the free stuff.

77/12. In the past 40 years, worker productivity has increased by 77%, yet wages only increased by 12%. The pitchforks are out...

However, people are waking up and things could go Yellow/Pink Vest very quickly. Us 'Muricans have guns and are a violent bunch.
@@untergehermuc
Truth is, you're right.
@@untergehermuc the big difference is that german unions like verdi, ig metall and even small unions like vereinigung cockpit ACTUALLY do their job, while www.unionfacts.com/article/crime-and-corruption/ is the reality in many american unions. this is used to undermine the workers' trust in them, and allowed the republicans to effectively get rid of unions in many states, via the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Right-to-work_law .
that's why americans usually don't go on strike. some unions still exist and do their jobs, but it's few and far between. the west virginia teacher strike, for example, started without help from the union, and the union tried to end the strike by settling on demands that wouldn't even have kept up with inflation. the whole anti-socialism garbage is also used to make union membership seem suspicious, along with corporate introduction videos for new employees that explicitly shit on unions. police brutality does the rest.
that's why the general strike the country desperately needs doesn't happen; it's a corporate dictatorship.
Have you ever seen a hand-written appointment ledger at a doctor's office? It's amazing anything ever got done at all before computers. The same technology that makes productivity skyrocket depresses the value of labor. Why? Because more productivity per worker means that you need fewer workers for the same amount of work. If I need to offload goods from a truck, and I have a liftgate and a pallet jack, I can now do a job alone that would have taken four people to do by hand. Now I can offer my services cheaper than the competition, and any store that uses my services can undercut their competition with the savings. Soon, there isn't anyone that does it by hand with four workers. This is common sense.
What is also common sense, is that if you flood the labor market with people who have no trade or technical skills, I can hire them at any wage instead of the people who are demanding higher wages, and have them operating my trucks instead of the old crews. But I don't want to be a scumbag so I pay my workers more, then I go out of business because my competition is illegally paying its workers $10/hour while I'm paying $20/hour, and their prices are much cheaper. The labor movement did finally beat management, but it wasn't through strikes. Those workers were beaten up by the Pinkertons, fired and replaced. It was by controlling the labor market through immigration restrictions.

@@jemroses1 No. She has never called for Socialism. Not once. Neither has Bernie. It's just the Far Right Wing media hammering that into your brains so you've been programmed to think that.

They do not sell oil. Open your eyes and look what is happening to Europe....the people there are in an uproar because their leaders want to bring socialism down on them.....France, Germany, Britian. aoc wants open borders which would be a catastrophe to our country. The left stands for everything that is immoral and indecent. When they want late term abortions and want to kill babies that are born/already out of the womb. What kind of sick person would think that was ok? Do they hate children? Pushing young children to believe that it is ok to be a different gender then what they were born as?? All of this they stand for against children is straight up evil and from the pits of hell! And if you are part of this party then you need to check both your spirit and soul.
Joe Chatman, do you think Bernie and aoc are going to come right out and say they are for socialism.....NO of course they will not, you need to read between the lines. aoc is being coached by the liberal radical left. Maybe it's Bernie.

This my first time hearing AOC speak about her positions on many issues after hearing so much B.S.... Love her freshness.
@MG hows that road your driving on working for ya, idiot
@MG is this sarcasm. lets see.. America is rated 37 in world for health outcomes. The number one reason people file bankruptcy are medical reasons and 50000 people die every year for bc they cannot afford it. Infrastructure gets a minus D. 70 percent of people live pay check to pay check and about 70 percent cannot afford a 500 emergency without going into debt...To tired to continue, you look rest up sport
@MG you do realize she's not even a socialist right? I like how y'all right wingers frame her, bernie and other lefties as radicals. By that standard then Denmark has taken over the means of production (they haven't) but they somehow manage to be one of the best places to open a business as compared to the usa who ranks several places below. Or how every other country has better medical outcomes, this includes countries like Canada and Australia where even conservatives wouldn't fight to get rid of the Universal Health Care. No she's a standard social democrat that wants to fix capitalism, yall got to learn what actual socialism is. Venezuela is socialist, and like you said, other factors play an important part. Such as how venezuela mainly invested in one aspect of the economy (oil) and didnt bother diversifying their economy. Or how we have some of the strongest sanctions on them and how the U.S. made a deal with powerful business owners to withold basic necessities from consumers.

2NDS0N intellect?
@@marcusj1167 yes, intellect. What's your point???
Well she ran off amazon from New York, that didn’t seem too intellectual.
@@marcusj1167 Get your narrative right. If you think that OAC is so powerful that she can, single-handedly, "run off Amazon", the world's largest retailer, worth hundreds of billions of dollars and the backing of Governor Cuomo, then you're comatose. Amazon decided not to pursue further negotiates due to push back from local grassroots organizations and scampered off of their own freewill. Don't try to play simple-minded partisan crap with me.
2NDS0N so aoc hasn’t been pushing for 90% taxes for companies? Hasn’t she not been calling for free health care, college and housing? Where does all this money come from?
It's so un-nerving to say so, it feels so out of the ordinary, but in general Canadians are actually jealous of the USA for AOC as she is exactly what we are looking for to lead our politics, someone who really gets it today and can cut through the BS really quickly and with focus, not afraid of new ideas or change and the balls to say so and point it out....Americans you're lucky to have AOC and where she came from (the working class is what I'm referring to, her origin story into politics) and you need to convince her to run for President in a few years once she is eligible. She will champion you're change, she will get shit done.....how she got where she is today is proof of that
thanks .. we will make sure that she become president in the upcoming years. Younger generations are more fond of her and bernie, so im pretty hopefull. Its time for change.
We’re jealous of ourselves for having aoc
Helping people to engage and create positive changes. I wish she was Canadian. Hope for our American neighbours!

@John C keep thoughtless comments to yourself hun you look stupid
John C.
She fought against corporate welfare in the Amazon deal. Google came to NYC , as well as face book and neither one asked the city and state for billions in tax breaks. This is a company that paid zero federal taxes on $11.2 billion in profits, and I am pretty sure still received a tax payer funded federal tax return. So give them billions in tax breaks so that they can bring in 25,000 jobs to people whom aren't guaranteed to reside in NYC, or NY state? A company whose mere presence will undoubtedly be a drain on the local public infrastructure and resources (schools, roads, subways, buses, commuter rail, emergency services.......), and their huge tax break doesn't negate the fact that the tax payer will still have to fund these services. Also, the other jobs that will come will be b.s. low wage jobs that they contract out (cleaners, security personnel, cafeteria personnel, and a ton of low paid skilled temp jobs). This is nonsense. Its amazing how working class folks will worship the ideals, and the positions of the ruling class to their own detriment time and again. It's sad. Turn FOX off. Vote in accordance with your own true self interests.
@@Wugyz108 Also, the Amazon benefit was supposed to be 2,500 jobs per year for 10 years. When accounting for the rising job rate in that NY district since 2009, that extra influx of Amazon jobs would have created negligible benefit. There has been no lack of jobs in that area.

SHE DID THE MILLENIAL / GEN Z thing of going "BILL BILL BILL" when seeing Bill Nye omg !!!!
WOW!!!! Bill Nye!!!! love to see that science & common sense is in our side!!!!! opinions might be bias, facts are not!
A small irony here is that AOC's policies are internationally centrist or moderate, it is the United States herself which sits to the right.
Negotiations with the TPP saw many US proposals being voted against 11-1 again and again.
It is the US which is out of step with the rest of the world, not the other way around.
Every other OECD country has some form of universal healthcare, which is labelled in the US as socialism. It is referred to in those countries not as socialism, but as normal. As a common sense solution. Supported by the left and right in Australia, UK, France, Germany, New Zealand and more - a long long list.
ua-cam.com/video/Mwantba05Y0/v-deo.html
@MG From a person living in the UK, you dont know what you are talking about, everyone loves the NHS here, they simply hate the fact the Tories are underfunding it.
@Tony Stark I'm glad you mentioned MRIs. I had one on Feb 27 this year. I made an appointment in the middle of Feb, about 2 weeks prior at a mutually agreeable time. The waiting list was 10 days - and yes, that was in a country with universal healthcare.
I've had longer waits in the US (I've lived in several countries).
What really sucks is for those in the US who must wait until they can afford the treatment. Which is why about 1/3 of go fund me are for medical related issues. What sucks in the US is that 20% of prescriptions are not fulfilled because of cost. What sucks is that the US already spends 18% of GDP on healthcare.
It's just selfish schmucks who attack universal healthcare as if it leads to some modern form of USSR or Guatemala. It hasn't in every single OECD country, the US is the only OECD country that doesn't have some form of universal healthcare.
@MG Every major breakthrough? Ha. Last time I was in a US hospital I saw electronics from the Netherlands, Germany and New Zealand! So I started looking for US made, and eventually found some.
While the US has more than its fair share of medical breakthroughs, it is well less than half according to the research I have read. One of the reasons it does so well is that the US federal government pumps billions into research, both in the form of cash and tax breaks. (Socialist research?)
The absolute majority of these countries are not moving to or wanting to move to the US. Why would they want to give up greater human freedom (ref Cato institute) or stronger democracy (ref EIU).
Merika has got 26% morons that are way too right of stupid
@MG The breathing equipment was made by Fisher and Paykel (New Zealand), the MRI was Philips (the Netherlands) and the heart monitor was Beuer (Germany). The hospital was located about two hours drive south of LA, in CA. It was in 2015.
Universal healthcare has been around for a long time, and has not led to any OECD country collapsing. Countries like New Zealand, UK and Australia have had universal healthcare for 70 plus years.
The majority of medical research and breakthroughs are not in the US. Again, the US has more than its fair share, but your notion that more than 50% is, with respect, completely daft. I suppose it is a form of American exceptionalism.
You are deflecting the major issues the US has by not having universal healthcare.
Russia, like the US has compromised democracy. (Ref. EIU democracy report 2018). Both countries do not have a full democracy.
Germany's economic well-being (and other European countries) is just fine, no doubt will continue thrive because of their new immigrants.
No freaking way! There is a real human in our government! I've heard a politician speak in front of camera with talking like one. She really answered the question. WOW Keep it up AOC

@@ramtrucks721 Odd, then, that her policy positions, and ideals, mirror those already attained by/for citizens in every country in the developed western world - in particular, in Europe - with the exception of the USA. The latter, a country where the grossly corrupt body-politic, born of, and sustained by, the legalised bribery of politicians, has created institutions that respond only to the 'donors' and the 'vested interests'. A morally bankrupt society that has produced gross aberrations such as Fox News (... banned in the UK) and a current President who unerringly reveals himself to be a disgusting specimen of humanity.
And, given your revolting form of written expression.... where would you say you lay in the 'spectrum of human decency'?
great conversation. I think it was poignant for AOC to mention how the most intergenerational wealth is land and house ownership. I therefore think in trying to think of either social programs or reparations or any ideas that we do not just talk about money, but we talk about opportunity. If the green new deal or other well though programs create more opportunity and home ownership and upliftment of historically oppressed and marginalized people, than something called reperations which gives just cash to certain people. I think the prior is more repairing. To help repair and make up for past harms we have to look at the substance of what is being proposed. Also AOC does mention how we have to go beyond caring about just ourselves and what will make us more united and understanding how we are intertwined. I therefore think that we should use the names of the programs carefully and we can use the word reperations within the green new deal, if aspects of it is targeted toward repairing communities that have been hurt historically.

You had me at "The Intercept".
She's describing society exactly as it's setup. The thing is, she's criticizing it from a moral perspective. The Democrats need to embrace this sort of talk so that the population will have a real choice between candidates. Right now, it's like Gore Vidal said, we don't really have a progressive party in the United States; we have two conservative parties, with one less conservative than the other. So both are safe to continue with business as usual.

@Jay Johnson : She's not wishfully thinking anything. She's simply describing things as they are.
As for the problem here: Those countries tax the wealthy at a higher right. We didn't start having these problems until these ridiculous tax breaks started. Back when America was becoming the economic powerhouse--after WWII--the tax rate for the wealthiest was something like 70%. Your beloved President Bush, while starting two wars, cut taxes.

It's hard to believe now but I when I was a college student in the mid-70s, the major prediction was that by the end of the 20th Century, we would have so much leisure time what with all the technological advancements and productivity increases that we wouldn't know what to do with all that free time and universities were actually receiving grants to research this "major issue". As we all know, the end of the century has come and gone and that prediction missed the target. Because real wages did not keep up with inflation, we are working longer hours now just to survive.
Not inflation corporations
That is what capitalism did, have regular people work to enrich just a few who wont allow others to thrive and have a good live too, besides just staying alive!
I wish that woman interviewing AOC would shorten her questions to 10,000 words or less.
She used adequate words in my opinion. The background she gave to the questions made them more substantive and also made the panel more conversational. I suspect that was the plan. As a media producer, I think this is a brilliant approach for presenting to a live audience. As an individual, I really appreciate the interviewer's preparedness, eloquence, and clarity.

@Bloom Berg trollin hard
AOC's vision is so clear & on target. she exemplifies who we are becoming - amounting to a spiritual evolution worldwide, when humans care, not just about ourselves or our own little group, but about the community in which we live, i.e. everyone on this small planet. This is why she can say we must Find a candidate we believe in and Vote for that person. Not just vote for the person we think will win. she says: that person WON'T win. we are changing, it's quite exhilarating. she has two feet on the ground, a superior intelligence, and a magnificent beautiful vibration. She says she doesn't really think about running for higher office, but her goal is to be useful. Not an EGO thing. Right now i believe this to be true and something tells me it will remain sho she is.
Her ideas are not radical or extreme is just that we have drifted so far from being fair, and just to the average person
in favor of the rich that when we settle for incremental gains it feels like we gained 10% of "garbage" or minus -100 to
-90. Ask yourself what middle class Americans could have done with the past 20 years of $ Trillions of dollars in tax
cuts to the rich that have not created jobs. AOC please pass a law to make the rich give back all that money if they did
not create jobs the last 20 years or freeze their bank accounts just like we do to dictators and money launderers.
I agree with you. My issue is that "conservatives" are actually becoming more and more extreme to fight the "far left". Like watch some conservatives. They started off pretty fair racially neutral. But like them start race baiting and saying some crazy shit. But the left isn't right either. They have no respect for anything but their own little group. So to me AOC is actually the most center person in media right now. I think she's too young. But like I'm younger than her. I just like the idea of my leaders being older. But hey a good leader is a good leader. I don't like her supporters (high class media) at all though.
@NPC Trailer Switch, Celebrity NPC Why should I even care what you have to say when you call yourself a NPC.
@NPC Trailer Switch, Celebrity NPC Yeah because being able to use emojis is really the determinant in comedic ability.
@NPC Trailer Switch, Celebrity NPC Thank you for teaching me that it is truly I who is ignorant O jester guru
As AOC get richer by the day!! Lol .to much.
I love how she always has a hair tie on her hand. So normal.
Foreground the moral question. Yes.
Kay Farquar that stuck with me too
How is "foreground[ing] the moral question" (to use Gray's words) not demagoguery? The populism inherent in some of the talk coming from the Left these days, I find pretty concerning.
@@davidsummers4820 You had Das Orange anus as your "President" yet you have the sheer brass-neck to accuse ANYBODY ELSE of demagoguery?
Seriously?
I mean, f*cking SERIOUSLY?
