by the standards of only 10 years ago. The Overton Window has shifted radically to the right.
Can anybody name any policy AOC pushes heavily that is "radical" to the point of being way too far-out for the average American. I mean, go ask 100 people what they think about these positions without mentioning any politicians' names:
- The wealthiest Americans should pay their fair share of taxes because they have achieved their wealth largely through the stability and support of the American government and military.
- Military-grade assault rifles should be banned, just as they were under Ronald Reagan.
- Women, their doctors and other people they trust should make their decisions about reproduction, not politicians.
- Health care should be a fundamental right for EVERY American, just as it is in nearly every advanced country.
- Americans should not have to pay more for pharmaceuticals than citizens of other countries.
- A public education, free of religious indoctrination should be a universal right.
- The country was founded on religious freedom. People should be able to worship as they choose, but this has no place in our public policy.
THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING RADICAL IN ANYTHING AOC SAYS.
