What exactly is your point though? I am not saying no one should pay for anything. What I am saying is in the richest country in the history of the world, why can we not afford basic healthcare and education rights that other nations achieve and some quite easily.

Also, why are countries not rushing to adopt the free market, "no money, you die" model?

Have you considered why we are the richest country? Perhaps it has something to do with not adopting socialism? Greece ring any bells?

I used to go to Shaw plants in dalton and the illegals threw the tp on top of toilet and crap in urinals

While at a nuclear plant in Mexico, I learned they don't flush tp. It goes in the waste can; you really need to avoid those restrooms as long as your bladder can take it because your stomach may not be up to the challenge.

If we really want to remove fossil fuel, nuclear is 100% the way to go. It’s the true clean energy that America needs.

You don't see any connection between economic well-being (or lack thereof) and racism? Scapegoat-ism where one group is blamed for the economic malaise of another group is common in history and usually surges with increased economic pressure. Trump got elected precisely by playing off that (Latinos bad, you guys good). Seemed to me what she was saying is the green new deal will improve the economy and lay a foundation for better racial justice. That doesn't seem absurd, although it's certainly more complex than that.

Well if one ignores the fact that her plan would literally wreck the economy...

I wished you would've typed that first. It would have saved me 20 seconds getting to it so I could've stopped reading. The ideas in her deal are imaginary and not feasible.

Apparently AOC (with some other local politicians) has been railing against Amazon. The outcome: Amazon is reconsidering it's second headquarters in NY. Way to go.

Pay attention Orange man. This is "winning".
