Billionaires don't use their wealth to create your job. They use your job to create their wealth.

No one, not one person, is worth a $B earned in a year.

Finally the courage to tell the true story about wealth and the illegitimate means of “getting rich” through the exploitation of those who labor for them!

Understanding the situation in the United States, starting with following me

Everything about the trump criminal organization is a myth; they are grifters. Ask the 590,000 people who gave them a $100 each for nonexistent trump phones.

I’m hoping this gets so big that they start having to show broad city clips on Fox

She is 100% correct. Those billions of dollars came at the expense of all of us.

Truth

She's absolutely right.

"Limitarianism: the Case Against Extreme Wealth" by philosopher Ingrid Robeyns advocates for a limit on personal wealth of €10m.

This is a no brainer.

💯

So ... who did Beyonce & Taylor Swift exploit?

Wow, I have not looked at it this way. A myth that it was earned. This is a powerful statement & should be used.

Didn't we knpw this already? So AOC, what will you DO ABOUT IT! JUST TALK?

...need to go add to my monthly donation

Been saying this in articles and research for several years. Majority of American wealth has its origins in unearned enslaver-based generational wealth, and government handouts to corporations and to white Americans (GI Bill, social welfare blamed on Black Americans, etc). More hard truths.

Well at least she voted to fund Israel's genocide, Besides the thurst for murdering of innocent women and children of Palestine she's great, right?

None greater than Amazon for that. Remember, it's 2026, and the federal minimum wage is still $7 an hour. That right there tells you all you need to know. Tax these bitches. Charge them by the fucking mile on our roads.

Our future president if we vote correctly when she is nominated etc

This made me want a laugh reaction lol

Think about it, to earn a billion dollars, with little no or a little money to start with won't raise like that. It takes others to start, and luck or intelligence to grow

I’m with AOC all the way.

We knew they were juiced, we just aren't sure what they are juiced on without drug testing.

AOC REJECTS Marjorie Taylor Greene's Anti-Zionism - w/ Garland NixonYouTube video by Due Dissidencewww.youtube.com

and of course, AOC is 100% correct. Then again, I've never understood the ridiculous P/E values in the securities markets. Unfortunately, we have to play by those rules, despite the obvious insanity.

that may be the single worst click bait hook I have ever seen 😆.

I agree with her 100%!

@aoc.bsky.social is 100% right! And the fact that billionaires even exist is proof the system is broken and in need of reform and regulation. #TaxTheRich

In a related story, Smokey Bear sued AOC for defamation after she accused him of crapping in the woods.

Look the Walmart billionaires "earned" it by having all of their full time workers on food stamps and government assisted medical.

Why are we always arguing weather or not they earned that money (obviously they didn't) but weather or not they need that money? If I pay 90% Tax and still have more money than I could ever spend on me, my family and friends that this tax doesn't hurt anyone but helps everyone.

This is someone I would LOVE to have leading us back to sanity in ‘28! And speaking of “earning”, hey y’all Establishment Dems: this is the ONLY program I’ll be voting for, so if you want to earn my vote you need to get with it…asap.

"Show us how you 'earned' it then"

Видео

The rich would have to eat money if the poor did not feed them. #TaxTheRich

I mean, she's 100% right. If you worked from 16 - 65, you'd have to be getting paid $12,500 an hour from the start to earn a billion by the end of it. And that's a no holidays no sickness lifestyle.

She’s right and billionaires are mad about her telling the public they’ve been duped.

#TeamAOC

It's true though. Billionaires didn't earn that money. Their employees earned that money and then they exploited them.

I mean…yeah?

So I wonder what her thoughts on Bernie endorsing Tom Steyer are

It's not an argument, it's a fact. If *EVERY* billionaire (and 100M+) died tomorrow,🤔 the world would barely skip a beat. (Pedo rapes would plummet,.. but ASIDE from that life would go on). You remove even a SMALL fraction of the working class, & the USA runs imminent risk of collapse in all areas.

That’s about it. We should make them pay.

I wish she could be more -than a senator - but a person to run the Department of education to bring - us up- all up - on the standard of education we used to have way back - before Republitards defunded education programs -and we end up with maga morons everywhere-

She is so spot on.

She is right. Their money makes money, like stocks. Then, underhanded business deals, money laundering, you know, like the trumps. Or, drug trafficking, trafficking women & children like Epstein, & his partners. Or, mega church guys. They make tons.Then they invest or do whatever to make more.

Most of them also had family money. Lucky them. Among them: Bezos Musk Gates

Sounds right

She's not wrong, depending on your definition of "earning".

How many members of the Walton family are at or near billionaire level who did nothing other than successfully transit the birth canal? Some of them spent more time there than ever working at the family business.

She’s to nice to say , They stole it! They’re thieves!”

She's absolutely correct, and if this is the worst 'dirt' that they think they have, then... 🤷 She really should run for president.

They should definitely create a huge ad campaign around this, really make sure that everyone in America knows how horribly mean AOC is to those poor robber barons!

This is a view that even the economists never really highlighted

All Biilionaires stole that money one way or another...I also agree that Billionaires should be outlawed...also tar and feathered and then given to the crowds of the poor holding baseball bats....they need to hit some balls to see how far they will fly.🫤

This is a very important perspective.

… but she’s right.

smh.🙄

OAC: Every Republicans nightmare

Republicans and their Oligarch overlords call AOC “Radical Left” when her policies are Right of Classic Republican Policies.

All accumulation is unearned, because all profits are exploitation, there is no "some level" that's fine and isn't exploitation. All profits means that there's some quantifiable value being brought to, say, the company by the employee that isn't being paid to them.

All the wrong people have money.

I'd argue that these guys did some useful work but FFS tax these guys, get rid the god-damn loop holes and offshore banking. Re-fund the IRS so can pursue this shit.

Taylor Swift wants to know how she earned her BILLIONS!?!?!?

truth hurts liars. they think we’re stupid. surprise!

It’s mostly theft. Elmo stole our tax dollars through scams to drill a hole to nowhere and blow up rockets. We paid for his electric car business. We paid for SpaceX. He stole all the money he has and we should take it back

AOC isn’t alone in her thinking….

She wasn't lying. Ppl defending the obscenely wealthy bcause they think they need them to survive.

It wasn't the court's decision, except for the voters nullification ruling.

I've been saying the same thing for quite a while

She's right. The average 1-percenter in this country, and perhaps on the planet, lacks the raw intelligence and time to have honestly accumulated their morbid degree of wealth. They luck into it, like a lottery win. They inherit it, marry it, or just steal it. Or all three. Enough already.

She’s absolutely correct!!

👍👍

Don't forget insider trading & abuse of connections in governments at all levels

Whose that girl interviewing AOC, she looks familiar?

she's completely correct

Generational wealth is handed down on silver platter & is nothing to be proud of. I find those types to be irresponsible, often cruel, lazy & selfish. Parents who raise humans like this do the world no justice leaving rotten souls behind.

Don't forget how low the bar is now because of Trump. Ignore the hypocritical noise making.

Rich got nothing on AOC.

Brian David Gilbert: There's Nothing Here!ALT: Brian David Gilbert: There's Nothing Here!static.klipy.com

She is right about this. In a just world billionaires would not exist.

She’s spot on like always

Interesting angle, might use it whenever I need to debate if the Trump kids "earned" that drone contract with the US Government...

Totally agree They earned on the backs of their workers Good on you AOC

1000%. At some point, it’s their money that is just making more money. Never breaking a sweat doing it - only when they were in Epsteins sauna.

Exactly

Corporate welfare. We’ve given all those fucking billionaires all the money.

So the problem here is.... they can't handle someone telling the truth? Okay Epsteiners 👍

No bigger myth than musk.

Our current financial system is like a game with an infinite money glitch / hack. It's broken. Progressive taxes are at least a patch for that.

She’s 100% correct. They think money gained through market manipulation and labor exploitation is “earned.”

She's right and the right hates that she's right. Am i right?

“Le secret des grandes fortunes sans cause apparente est un crime oublié, parce qu'il a été proprement fait.”

To amass billions, something is getting exploited: Labor (probably number 1) Resources Technology (Elon) Confidence (looking at you, Prosperity Ministries) just off the top of my head.

They would have nothing without us lowly little worker bees.

She’s 100% correct. AOC is a complete badass.

Exactly. When r>g, you're rewarding investing over labor. You don't earn by playing in the biggest casino on earth. You just luck out, unless you're privy to insider trading.

She’s not lying. Corporations don’t want unions. Corporations donate to control laws. Corporations don’t want to pay your worth. Why do you think they cap pay raises or max pay? Do CEOS have caps?! CEOs make their pay by controlling yours and lawmakers! Rise up people! Take corp 💰 out of politics!

Yep. I agree with AOC. She speaks for what many millions all over the world are thinking about billionaires!

If only she were in a job where she could do something about it.

I can think of a few that deserve it and worked for it (Jimmy Buffett, Taylor Swift, and a few others who didn’t dodge income taxes.)

Anybody else ever notice how those guys like to tell the story of how they started their business in their parents garage with a $20k loan and built it from nothing into a hugely successful business, but suddenly now they need billions in tax cuts in order to be innovative and grow? Weird 🤔

Well, you know, she’s right, 100%

You know that taxpayers are paying Amazon employees, right? Bezos won’t pay them a living wage so the taxpayers make up the difference by funding welfare like SNAP, etc. Want your taxes to go down? Demand companies pay a living wage so we don’t have to provide welfare to full time workers

She’s the one

Wait, is this supposed to be a smear? I was nodding along like

Yip Yips Sesame Street CharactersAlt: Yip Yips Sesame Street Characters saying yep yep yepstatic.klipy.com

Instagram generated about 100s of millions of dollars with 13 employees. The exploitation argument is overly simplistic, and sensationalist. If a painting, a move or a book makes someone a billionaire, who is the one that was exploited?

As always, spot frikken on, that one. Brilliant is sexy! Double major, Econ & International Relations. cum laude Wherever this “bartender” goes, I’ll surely follow her 👏🏽 Eagerly. In joy.

If Bezos worked a 40-hour week last year, his wage was $36 Million per hour.

Elon Musk certainly hasn't earned a trillion dollars.

At least 70% of emotional-support-truck-Americans spooge on their custom F1 steering-whatevers daily to AOC. So.. um.. invest in industrial solvents. I'm not sure that will un-sticky things, but it's worth a try.

@moulton.house.gov

let's not forget that most billionaires start out with family wealth and privilege. bezos went to princeton, his mom was an heiress and he got 300k from mommy and daddy to start amazon. gates had a bank executive mom and lawyer dad + a million dollar trust fund. and Forbes will call them "self-made"

Larry Ellison’s wealth is a good example of that, Oracle’s stock buybacks over the last decade have made the illusion of profit per outstanding shares, while not actually being as performant. Then he’s leveraging unrealized profits in loans to avoid taxes and try for things like Digital ID.

Yep. I didn’t earn the totality of my retirement fund- I contributed and the rest is market based decision of which the only control I had was to pick funds that charged the least to run them.

Of course! Without corporate welfare, and massive tax breaks and corruption, there would be billionaires. The existence of the billionaires have a consequence, which is that wealth are horded, and we have much less to live on. If we examine the working class, the effect is apparent. 1/2

Give 'em Hell Alexandria; I am with you!

I wonder if she listened to Abigail Disney on the Billionaire Age podcast. She said the same thing. I highly recommend everyone listen to it.

Amen!!

Please tell me they're running with this. Please.

Pretty much the way it is.

Yes and? So... how is it they think this is damaging. It's simple logic.

She’s right

They didn't work harder or smarter, they were better at being sneaky and cheating to gain their wealth in 99.999% of the time!

This amazing lady is the antithesis to MAGA on every conceivable level.

They are developing AI fast because the plebs are figuring it out. We don't need them and we out number them.

Pay a living wage. Provide public health care. Support child care and education. Social programs are essential to a strong economy. This was supposed to be the trickle down econmics promise. More money for wealthy meant more opportunities for lower class. But wealthy are wealthy for a reason.

She’s brilliant ✨

AOC’s Patriotism, Passion and Intelligence is beyond reproach ! THANK YOU CONGRESSWOMAN !!

What they have is her being accurate in the most basic elements of capitalism.

She is fantastic!

🔥

Sounds right to me

No lies detected.

AOC is beautiful. :)

Having a billion dollars is the modern day result of survivor's bias.

Who gives a single shit if it’s “earned”?? We know what this society considers “earning” it, and FUCK THAT. Get it how you can. There’s a lot wrong with a lot of billionaires but spare me the bullshit about who does and doesn’t “earn” it. She’s a fucking cretin sometimes.

Where’s the lie? She laid it out flat.

magats are simply not intellectually equipped to comprehend the depth of her argument

Wow! Fantastic! AOC is so smart! AOC, age of consent

Heavens: the very idea that the entitled Epstein Class doesn't (sniff) earn their money...

A+++ Smartest girl nay person and we'd be lucky to have her as President! She's not adored by the Democratic elite and she has everything we thought Democrats were supposed to be and she does the things we believed Democrats would do for us. Plus watching misogynists head explode, priceless!

Let’s go back to the Cold War tax rates when balancing the budget was more than a campaign promise While still feeding the military industrial complex. The first step to economic sanity has to be taking the money out of politics by implementing Campaign Finance Reform

Too bad too many of AOC fans didnt vote for Hillary in 2016. We would not be IN this situation if they didnt have a purity test.

#AOC4President ✊🏾

And, let’s not forget that these billionaires and their businesses have been built using the roads we pay for, the education of their workers that we pay for, and all other public goods financed by the taxpayer.

Ok but I give you Taylor Swift

She's right

yet california workers are supporting tom steyer 😭

She's not wrong.

How does AOC earn her millions?
