Rep Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-NY) suggested that the federal government should be sending a paycheck to Americans to get them to stay home and help stop the spread of the coronavirus. 'To get the virus under control, we need to pay people to stay home,' she tweeted on Thursday. 'Republicans are mad at this when they literally just voted to do just this in March,' Ocasio-Cortez added, in reference to the sole $1,200 stimulus check Congress authorized in the early days of the pandemic and $600 in federal unemployment, which helped people stay home. With no recent stimulus packages passed
When will we run out of "other people's money"? When the Dems can blame it on the Repubs.

My home is Houston. So you'll pay me to stay in Houston ?
Hint : I might sneak off to Louisiana when you're not looking.

Where’s my check? I’m at home.
We can pay each other to stay home. Eliminate the need to do that messy laundry.
2000 of you pay me $30 per month, and then I’ll pay 2000 other people $25 per month- only a 16% management fee, very reasonable.

Let's see her tax returns. I'll wager she takes every deduction and gives little or nothing to charity.
A typical generous dim who will do everything for everyone - with someone else's money.
I recall when Ted (Lyin' in the Senate) Kennedy died people talked about how generous he was.Maybe, but not with Kennedy $$!

I don't know why layabouts should be paid with tax payers' dollars when there is a constant stream of "I made thousands of dollars last month working from home on my computer. I couldn't believe it only took 2-3 hours a day. Click here for more information!" Seems like easy money is readily available to all.

Start a non-profit and ask for donations. Then spread the wealth.
The US Treasury is NOT your piggy bank.

She still owes taxes from a failed business venture but she sure is generous with other people's money.

She wants the taxpayers to pay off her student loans and now wants to add paying people to stay home. As if another couple of weeks will make a difference. Especially in inner-city cesspools where people live on top of one another and throw parties for hundreds of their closest friends.

Addlepated Taco Barbie has been richly rewarded for having struggled as a saloon trollop who had to steal tips to survive. There's her background in economics - and she calls Trump (a fairly successful businessman) dangerous. But hey, she's pretty!

When Obola was elected, I said "BO don't know math" Looks like AOC is clueless about where money comes from, especially her salary. Grow up.
Why does anyone ask her opinion ?

Why she is really saying is it’s time for guaranteed universal income. How much to start? At least $600/week for someone single. Add another $300/week per child if you are a parent. That’s just for starters.

The patient asks the doctor; how long will this lockdown last? He says; how should i know, I'm only a doctor, not a politician.

So we're all to believe that just because the weather gotten cooler, the virus infections are worse? So if we're all inside because it's cooler outside, and the virus is supposedly spreading, doesn't that prove that lock downs don't work? Why didn't it spread during the summer when things opened up, and more people were together in enclosed locations? The amount of disinformation concerning this thing is just amazing.

I would pay AOC to stay home provided she also kept her mouth shut. In fact, I would double what she is worth, which unfortunately still comes out to zero.

We can all get paid to idle at home, just like AOC's core constituency of welfare surfers. Behold, the Democrat Socialist miracle. Sleepy Joe's on board with this, as he said during the last debate. Why not? Money grows on money trees.
