If a person made 10 million and the government took 99%, leaving 100,000 wouldn't put anyone in the poor house either.
But what if you made that $10 million running a beef farm, and AOC Green new deal put you out of work?
Or a coal plant owner, or gas station owner or any other business the GND specifically targets.
Poor house ALL THE WAY.

As a sapiosexual she gets more cringe-worthy daily...
At first I found her somewhat attractive. Then she opened her word hole... And continues to prove our educational system is trash. This it what a degree in economics looks like?
No wonder so many collage graduates work at bar's...
and who's pocket book do you think they will come after next, once the rich leave the country/state? Eventually they will come for yours, better to try and stop it now rather than have an even more uphill fight later.

You don't even know how taxes work. How can you whine about anything AOC says?
To hell with 70% we should be shooting for 90% as income inequality is worse now than at any other point in history!
This chick is way out there.... although no more than Pelosi Schumer Waters and Sanders etc. the thing here is that socialists are using an arbitrary number because they are looking through the lens of relative thinking instead of the wholeness of absolute God abundance.

The moron is at it again. $10 million!
So, a marginal tax rate is if you make more than $10 million in one year --which is a pretty good year-- if you make more than ten million in one year, your ten millionth and one dollar gets taxed at 70%," Ocasio-Cortez explained. "
That means if someone busts their arse for an entire year and gross $10 million 70% belongs to the state, Of course after the state income tax and other taxes are subtracted from it.
"By the way, we used to have marginal tax rates, under Republican presidents of 90%, and it was when we experienced some of the greatest rates of economic growth."
So life is apparently good when this nation was ran by racist and sexist, and misogynist's.

I think I'd fall over dead from surprise if anyone here ever actually understood what they're accusing this woman of.
