Ocasio-Cortez: the socialist who didin't share

Socialist Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez doesn't always follow socialist principles, especially when following them isn't to her advantage.

While working in a New York bar, a former co-worker claims that in at least one instance, Ocasio-Cortez (henceforth referred to as OC) allegedly pocketed most of the tip money for herself--a very unsocialistic move that would make her mentor Bernie Sanders proud.

The New York Post's Page Six reports that many of those who used to work with OC at Flats Fix liked her, one employee had negative things to say about her character.

A waitress at the street taco and tequila bar told the newspaper that during a busy Cinco de Mayo celebration in 2017, at the end of the night, the tips came to $560 at the bar but OC gave the waitress only $50. After the waitress complained to the manager, her take was doubled to $100, according to a source.

"It says so much about her character," the waitress told Page Six. "From that point on, I wouldn't talk to her. I couldn't look at her."

The newspaper tried to contact OC but she didn't respond, perhaps because there's nothing to say in her own defense.

OC is running for Congress as a Democrat in New York's 14th District, and has become the darling of the leftist media as the socialist future of the Democratic [People's] Party.

My schadenfreude wants her to win so that she can screw up the 14th District, but I actually hope she simply loses the election, which I doubt she'll lose.

Her win won't come from her socialism however--it will come from her last name.

Her message during a TV interview was: "I believe that in a modern, moral and wealthy society, no person in America should be too poor to live. That's what I feel."

The operant word is "feel," because she is clueless about the reality of what she "feels."

She is running as a Democrat, as mentioned, but she is basically unable to define the difference between socialism and Democratic socialism.
