AOC complains that her $174,000 annual salary isn't enough to start a family for "working and middle class" people like her

That isn't what she said at all you moron. She said with the cost of being a congressman and the pay being what it is, that it prices out average Americans from being Representatives and relegates it to an activity largely only accessible to the wealthy elite.

No, that's not at all it. She was complaining that she needed to be paid more. In fact, it started a whole debate for a brief period about whether Congress should give itself a direct raise, or maybe provide an additional housing allowance, etc.

Congrats on being entirely off the mark, you moron.
 
I did.

She could live just fine on what she makes, if she did not want to try to live like an elite, but that, in all honesty, is what she thinks she deserves, given her position, and education.

Which, if that is what she desires? She needs to either quit, or engage in all that insider trading like everyone else in Congress. I imagine she is still making more than when she was slinging drinks. :rolleyes:

Most in Congress get money from other places, mostly illegal, but she is too stupid to understand that.

That is why Joe Biden has a vast estate dotted with mansions on the same kind of salary.

She should take up art like Hunter, so long as AOC gives the "big buy" 10% off the top so they can sell the "artwork" to Russian and Chinese oligarchs overseas.
 
The always enlightening Ocasio-Cortez opined on how only ten women in history have given birth as congresspeople. And she thinks that it's because her $174,000 yearly salary just isn't enough money to start a family.


More likely it's because of the time requirements of being a congresscritter...


Well, that should be the reason.

What exactly is wrong with pointing out the pay for congressmen, coupled with the expenses, prices out average Americans?

According to the "fact checkers," she apparently did not receive any paid promotion for that. . .


Take it for what it is worth.

:dunno:
 
My heart just bleeds for her and how hard all our elected officials work....

Have a look at the article... It is a biased hit job...

AOC is making a great point about trying to start a family in high pressured jobs in the US... She has been pointing to how Europe has far more family supportive work practices..

US mother are really want the European style of parental leave, child care support.... Europe has already shown it to more efficient but employers are too scared in US.. The EU government had to push employers into it initially but now it is just accepted practice.

Example of what I mean:
In Europe (in a lot of countries) for the first 5 years of your child's life you can by worker right have one parent take one day a week as parental leave day. For that they get 80% of the normal salary and there promotion or other benefits are not effected..
Guess what, they found that parental leave parents were doing as much work productively in 4 days than the colleges were doing in 5... They turned out to be more focused and more productivity orientated..

She's trying to explain to you one of the reasons why that is, Short Bus. You're just too stupid to understand simple explanations.

Out of the Top 10 wealthiest congresspeople list 6 out of the top 10 are Republican and the 8, 9, and 10 on that list are Democrats, Nancy Pelosi being number 10. Republicans and moderate Democrats are the biggest sell outs there are.

It's just a good thing those same Republicans were there to help remove Trump.
 
Biden's wealth came late in life, due to book sales and speaking fees. When he entered the Vice Presidency, his net worth was less than $30,000.
Ah yes, the book deals and speaking fees



Makes perfect sense now, thanks for that.

Funny how so many people want to read about these Swamp creature politicians and hear them speak at the end of their careers. They are all so entertaining and enlightened, after all.

In fact, it seems to happen every time.

Funny that
