In every socialist country, those who hand out government cheese live large, while those receiving “free” government cheese are trapped in poverty and forced to prostitute their vote to socialist leaders to survive.
Witness Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez who now lives large with an annual salary of $174,000 and about another $110,000 in fringe benefits [retirement plans, top of the shelf medical, paid vacations, etc.] bringing her annual earnings up to about $285,000. And what is the average salary of her congressional district’s constituents? It’s under $60,000. But even with such a huge difference between AOC’s salary and her constituents, one of the first things AOC wanted as a member of Congress was to give herself and members of Congress a $4,500 cost of living increase and increase her constituents’ taxes to pay for it.
While Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and the rest of the Democrat Leadership promises free socialist cheese to get elected, its seems quite clear they are the only ones who receive that cheese which is financed by confiscatory taxes imposed on their constituents.

The Democrat Party Leadership has been angry, stupid and obnoxious ever since the Republican Party Leadership freed democrat owned slaves. ___ Author unknown
A few thousand dollar cost of increase for Congressional members is going to break the bank at a tally of less than $2 million, but trillions on wars, tax cuts, and unnecessary military spending is no problem whatsoever.
Washington DC is an extremely expensive city to live in. I don’t really care if Congresspeople get occasional raises to account for cost of living increases. As I said, a $4.500 uptick would equate to less than $2 million total. We have so many bigger issues to deal with when it comes to our money flowing out in idiotic ways.
The Dem Dem Politicians what their “Crumbs” back!!!
You know, the money that Trump made sure the American people got, and now
through raising taxes the Liberal Politicians can get that money back for themselves
and then some!
Free government cheese (taxpayer dollars) pays for a lot of great things. Like Donald’s Amazing Technicolor Golfing Adventures! Is he trapped in poverty for receiving all that cheddar?
“Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-Queens) wants to give herself and the other 434 representatives a $4,500 cost of living increase, a boost that Democratic leaders yanked out of concerns about a backlash from voters.”

The unavoidable truth is, the Elizabeth Warren, Bernie Sander’s and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s socialist plan for “free” college tuition will be paid for by taxing millions of college graduates who worked for and paid their own way through college and are now trying to finance their own economic needs.

multi tens of trillions proposed for a climate hoax, 1000 per month for everyone and all healthcare (for criminals) and college for free and you complain about “golf”
your posts sound like the product of the media’s forge.
The only thing I will give up is trying to converse with someone who looks at numbers on the screen in front of him and claims they aren’t there because he can’t admit he was wrong.
Have fun whining about a freshman member of the House of Representatives.
