It Finally Happened, AOC Just Complained She Doesn’t Make Enough Money… staff June 26, 2022 Uncategorized She’s a self-proclaimed socialist who says $174,000 is way too small a salary for members of Congress. Far-left Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) says it’s hard for an “ordinary person” from a working-class or middle-class background to raise a family while working in Congress, citing the salary as a source of problems. The comments appear to come from an Instagram story posted by former Washington Examiner reporter John Gage. .@AOC complains her $174,000 congressional salary is too low to start a family on. Says it makes it difficult for “working and middle class” members like her. pic.twitter.com/1INlL2y4qQ — John Gage (@johnrobertgage) June 22, 2022 The Citizen Free Press reported that AOC aired a long list of grievances against Congress, complaining that the government sector is underpaid. For those like her who consider themselves to be working-class Americans, the Rep. claims that the money is insufficient. @AOC blames our current political and economic problems on the country’s “Protestant work ethic.” pic.twitter.com/nonUrAEsRz — John Gage (@johnrobertgage) June 22, 2022 This pretty much proves just how stupid AOC is. Anyone who goes to Congress and can’t figure out how to embrace the corruption and get rich is too dumb to be there. Sad, but true. — kevingossett (@kevingossett) June 23, 2022 AOC also points out that only 10 women have ever given birth while serving in Congress, calling it “a very hostile place to have a baby.” Ocasio-Cortez contends that lawmakers must pay out $25,000 in labor costs and that there is no provision for housing or student loan relief. The average annual pay in 2020 in the United States, according to the Social Security Administration, was $53,383 while the median annual salary was $34,612. Factoring in the $25,000 disbursement, AOC and other “working and middle class” members still earn nearly three times the average American salary. She is also engaged to web developer fiancé Riley Roberts who some sites claim has a pretty high net worth. This isn’t the first time Ocasio-Cortez has complained about not getting a raise. House Democrats in 2019 rejected a proposed salary increase for congressmen over optics, as she complained the amount wasn’t really that high. “It’s not even like a raise,” the New York socialite said of the proposed $4,500 raise at the time. It’s unclear whatever planet AOC thinks it’s appropriate to live on when he complains about making $174,000 a year. It seems unlikely that Americans who are already struggling financially at the grocery store and gas station will be able to sympathize. AOC frequently believes that no matter how much something costs, it will never be enough. Therefore, it is not strange that she is upset about her pay. Here are some comments from folks online: “Have zero sympathy for a woman whose IQ is below that of a rock.” “Since she’s such a GREAT politician, she should go back to Porto Rico. She could become “QUEEN FOR LIFE”, and finally take care of her poor abuelo that lives in a shack…” “Brain dead AND whacky……..” “Typical democrat, has no idea how stupid she is. Can’t read” “Resign and go back to bartending and stfu” “She’s “thinking” about procreating?? Oh, HELL NO!! We don’t need any more like her – – hell, we don’t need her in Congress!” “This society whore has been bitching about her paycheck since her first day in office… Peel this non-productive leech off the body of the American public that pays her payroll and stomp on her her …” “Try some insider trading like Pelosi. Or launder some foreign aid through Ukraine like most of them.” “So says the boneheaded idiot who b!t(hed her way out of getting good paying, great benefits Amazon jobs for thousands of her constituents. She needs to shut the hell up, drop the complaining and her stupid, grandstanding, poor pitiful me history “lessons,” and start figuring out how to LIVE ON A BUDGET.” “Cant afford gas, cant afford food, we sure as F&%K cannot afford an electric car. But AOC drives one!!!” “Quit…you’re only screwing things up anyway…so do the Country a favor & QUIT!” Sources: Headlineusa, Citizenfreepress, WND Leave a Reply Cancel ReplyYour email address will not be published.CommentName* Email* Website Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment.
