US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants to raise taxes on the rich — just not pay her own.

The Democratic socialist congresswoman from The Bronx still hasn’t paid a 7-year-old tax bill leftover from a failed business venture.

AOC had founded Brook Avenue Press, a publishing house that sought designers, artists and writers from urban areas to help paint The Bronx in a positive way in children’s stories, in 2012.

As the Post previously reported, public records show the state dissolved the company in October 2016. The state can make such a move when a business fails to pay corporate taxes or file a return.

The state Tax Department then filed a warrant against her now-defunct business on July 6, 2017, over a $1,618.36 unpaid bill.

As of Friday, the tax warrant had still not been satisfied, and the outstanding balance had grown to $2,088.78, the department said.

Eh. This one is a reach. It relates to franchise taxes for a business, not any sort of income taxes. While she should have filed a cancellation certificate when the business failed, people just walk away all the time.

Easy to fix, just have the State tax people come by her office, then they can accuse of her sexual assault, she can pay them off with the hush hush congress slush fund. No further questions will be asked.

A reach? For a “democratic socialist” who can’t take a breath without using it to exhale how taxes are not high enough on a segment of society? I think not.

And people walking away all the time from the bill are still cheats. In this case, the cheat is a gigantic hypocrite.

Did the mean ole cheaten Trump pay these taxes??

I’ll say this: if that’s not her, it’s the best deep fake ever.

Dude, you’ve got to remember: you’re talking about people to whom shame is a foreign concept.

The idea of being a hypocrite or being branded one means less than nothing to them...unless it somehow hurts them. And with a complicit media backing them to the hilt, it usually doesn’t.

I’m sorry. I missed where she filed bankruptcy. And through this bankruptcy would have gotten much closer scrutiny by any lender and creditors in the future while people who just “walk away” doesn’t get the same scrutiny.

Gotta love the ole “but look over there!” Response.

And I see you didn’t answer if Trump had paid his while she did not.

Forgiveness of this specific debt will be on page 18,372 of the next ‘stimulus’ bill.

Are you retarded? Do you even comprehend what you’re arguing?

And you started the “look over there” thing by changing the subject to trump. What the hell do i care about that?

I get your point, I started a business and have screwed up just about every tax or franchise fee known to man, messed up unemployment tax stuff in two States and God knows what else. I think they giggle when I call, ignorance is somewhat an excuse for me.

But you know what? I paid em, and any fees. And if you owe for 7 years you have been given ample opportunity to make it right.



But can we talk about the business idea? If the market wanted your garbage product, you would have customers. This isn't a baseball field, you can build it and they still wont come.
