    Socialism = theft

    At the end of the night, when it came time to split the $560 in tips she had gotten at the bar, Ocasio-Cortez gave the waitress only $50. After the waitress complained to her manager, her take was doubled to $100, a source said.
    “It says so much about her character,” said my source. “From that point on, I wouldn’t talk to her. I couldn’t look at her.”

    If the story is true, it exposes the real heart of a socialista and makes her an easy mark for those who wish to profit from her corruption. I imagine she will be running against Trump in 2020 and will make killary look conservative.


    Meanwhile south of the border;
    Mexico is a failed state of narco-terrorists, killer gangs, mass corruption and poverty.
    Voters on Sunday went to the polls to elect an anti-American, Trump-hating socialist to redistribute the wealth.

    Ocasio-Cortez is nothing more than an America-hating Communist.

    They voted him in because he, like they, think we owe them something and they're going to try to take it. Expect a flood of criminal aliens the likes this country has never seen, and possibly another US/Mexican war.


    ps

    Trump called him and congratulated him on his victory and said he looked forward to working with him

    Ocasio-Cortez is a she. And the only reason she won was because she was a "wise Latina" in a very liberal district that was tired of their white Democrat incumbent.

    Bona fide socialists still make up a minority of the Democratic caucus. Most of them are still pro-business/Wall Street, so there's still going to be some power struggles between the more progressive and moderate wings.
    "That tyranny has all the vices both of democracy and oligarchy is evident. As of oligarchy so of tyranny, the end is wealth; (for by wealth only can the tyrant maintain either his guard or his luxury). Both mistrust the people, and therefore deprive them of their arms." -- Aristotle, Book V, 350 B.C.E

    I have never worked in a restaurant or bar so someone needs to explain this to me. Why would a bartender share tips (I guess from a tip jar on the bar) with a waitress? Don't people directly tip their waitress?

    The cafe I worked in had a tip jar and the boss controlled the tip jar, I suppose it's different just about everywhere.

    Mexican President-elect Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador announced this week that he plans to travel without armed guards and claims that the people will protect him, even as the country has been rocked by scores of political assassinations over the past several months.

    I am going to go out on a limb and predict she (based on a similar lack of qualifications) will be the next BO Obama. Based on one primary win she is now being called a "king maker" whatever that is.

    You're, probably,right on that. She has all the qualifications she needs to be the Dimocartic Presidential candidate: she's female, young (as opposed to Hitlary), non-White, Leftist/Communist/Socialist, has no idea what she's talking about and is batshit crazy. And, she'll be exempt criticism because anyone who says anything about her will be called racist or a woman-hater. (Whether she has an actual birth certificate is totally irrelevant.) She's almost as untouchable as obama was.

    She's the perfect candidate for the Communist Party of the United States.

    She's not a king maker. King makers sit behind the scenes, typically financing a king. She will be who the domestic enemies will run against Trump in 2020.

    'HUGS, NOT BULLETS': Mexico's New President Reveals Plan To Stop Drug Cartels
    On Friday, Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador, Mexico's newly-elected president, revealed his new plan to combat Mexico's drug war which includes legalizing drugs, instituting gun control, and reducing punishment for criminals.
    https://www.dailywire.com/news/32742...-ryan-saavedra

    This is exactly opposite of what Mexico needs of course - arming the law abiding citizenry. They will disarm the law abiding and ensure the criminals are protected and more are released back onto the streets. Obrador ran on the hugs not bullets slogan, they will reap bullets instead of hugs.

    So? The Dims have already put a president in who wasn’t born in the US. Not being old enough won’t stop them.

    My wife worked at a Marriott resort for 18 yrs as a food server ( "waitress" for us unpretentious blue collar folks ). She made pretty good money working breakfast and lunch, usually between 40 - 50 K per year. She relied on the busboys to clear and set her tables quickly and it was customary to tip them a percentage of what she made in tips, usually 10-15%. The waitresses that got stingy with the busboys got slow service from them and didn't turn as many tables as my wife. She would also tip the line cooks who were essential in her getting her food out quickly.

    For bartenders it was the same, the waitresses relied of them to get the drinks out fast and the bartenders relied on the waitresses to schmooze the customers and keep them drinking and coming back to the bar.

    When i was working as a commercial roofer. i busted my ass to make 40 K per year, but she had to deal with bitchy people ( lots of stress) who would send their food back to the kitchen for whatever reason. I would not have had the patience for that shit.

    Yer that's what I was thinking, expect them to ignore the rule of law just like always. There's enough of them sick of killary to support some new marxist, but if killary gets the dnc nod you can be sure she will have all of them voting for her rather than another 4 years of Trump. There seems to be some dissension in the ranks with the #walkaway movement, however.

    My bro's wife worked at some high priced place and she got $250 or so per nite in tips. She, like your wife, busted her ass serving the richest people in town whose pewp doesn't stink.

    "They started with the education system.

    Trying to sell to the populace sociopaths like Stalin and Lenin as heroes of their country. Making attempts to the Marxist ideology look like the Holy Grail. They had permeated the national universities all over the country, by the way. “Fight against the imperialism” was their motto. Whatever that was.

    Many of the fanatics when asked, they hesitate and mention the Anglo-Saxon empire, the USA, etc. Never defined their borders. Never could identify that enemy. That is not surprising, given the general level of education in the barrios, where most of the people used to live."

    An observant Venezuelan describes to us the descent of his nation into the socialist paradise it is today, you will see parallels in this country as far as mis/de education, politicians and media figures. They will say this is not what socialists want, but it is what they get.
