To be fair that’s a very legitimate question.
Nobody asked it when we passed a gargantuan tax cut or increased the military budget. It's actually not a legitimate question, it's a rhetorical tool for arguing against policy.

The military budget increase alone cost more than making every public university tuition free.

AOC was broke before/after being elected this past fall. Let’s check back in on her net worth in a few years.

“Retrofit every building in America”

Who wrote this stuff? Anyone with a tiny shred of business/operations knowledge knows how wildly unrealistic this is.

Haha dumbasses

Imagine bringing electricity to EVERY building in the country

What the freak you want us to remove lead paint and asbestos from everywhere? MIGHT AS WELL ASK US TO PUT UNICORNS ON THE MOON

Some people just have no grasp on reality

Save that post for when she’s part of the 1%. Shouldn’t be long

Did you have even the slightest clue about what she means by that or what it would cost? No jokes, anecdotes, or rebuttals, just answer the question in plain English.

Why do you keep saying things aren't mentioned in the deal when they clearly are?

https://www.atr.org/sites/default/files/assets/greennewdeal.pdf

It's on the first and last pages and continually brought up throughout this document
The document doesnt say that agreeing with this guarantees everyone gets a guaranteed job.  It says we want to create jobs that guarantee that standard of life.  There is a huge difference.

It even relates the goal to FDR's plan.  FDR never made any deals, plans, or Bill's that guaranteed every american gets a job that provides a livable wage.  He did work so those types of jobs could be created though...

@AOC: Last year DHS separated 1000s of children from their parents + put them in cages. Some died. Yet DHS has had 0 accountability or changes.

Why on earth should we give them more cash?

Proud to join @AyannaPressley, @IlhanMN, & @RashidaTlaib as we say #Not1Dollar more to DHS.

Departments under DHS:

-ICE
-CBP
-TSA
-Secret Service
-FEMA
-USCIS
-US Coast Guard
-Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency (CISA)
-Federal Law Enforcement Training Center

You didn’t answer the question. Newsflash: you can’t just cut the military budget in half like it’s cancelling Netflix. I would expand on this but JE will ban me so I won’t

"How are we going to pay for it" is now illegitimate. FFS.

I'm sorry I don't support gutting our military to essentially create four years of extra high school. I'm not subsidizing the next wave of democratic voters and their useless sociology degrees, even if I agree that our military budget could be paired down by not playing world police.

Hahahahaha thats cute considering literally all your talking points come from the derriere end of leftist media. Go ahead, give me the next take from the worst parts of The Atlantic (fresh off employing assassination-advocating Jemele Hill!) or TheIntercept.

Go wish another mass shooting on kids for the high crime of wearing a hat and smirking, it's pretty much all your good for. Aside from saying that cost is an illegitimate question. JUSTPRINTMONEYHAHAHAHAHA.

What questions? Show me them? Insanity posed one question which indicated to me that he didn't bother reading the legislation or associated FAQ. His further commentary cemented my opinion. But at the very least he approached the thread with a substantive take. The next point you make will be the first.

Like I'd ever blow off an attempt by someone like you to try to condescend to someone like me. If you're wondering what that means, it means I think you're a freaking moron. And after your little ad hominem I have no problem calling you a douchebag either.

A caricature. Lol, freak you. Go back a couple of pages and see wishes about the death of teenagers before you freaking come at me, you stupid freak. 

Simply put, especially after this legislation, anyone who puts any stock into this horseface just isn't to be taken seriously.

Yeah, freak most of those

But if you feel so strongly about this you must have been incredibly upset when they shut down the government and stopped funding some of those agencies.
