Ocasio-Cortez: ‘Definition’ of Socialism Is ‘No American Should Be Too Poor To Live’

‘That means every working class American in this country should have access to dignified health care’

RUSH EXCERPT:

OCASIO-CORTEZ: "Well, for me, again, there is so much focus on this endorsement, but I also think it’s important — an important part of my strategy in winning was building a broad based coalition of people. So while there is a focus on this one aspect of the coalition, and to me, you know, to answer your question, the definition of democratic socialism, to me, again, that in a modern, moral and wealthy society, no American should be too poor to live. That means every working class American in this country should have access to dignified health care. Should actually be able to go see a doctor without going broke. You should be able to send your kids to college and trade school if they so choose. Nobody should feel precarious or instable in their access to housing."
