Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is a child of privilege. She won the birth lottery by being born to an architect. Ocasio-Cortez grew up in Yorktown Heights, New York, a town swankier than Plano, Texas.
Yorktown Heights medium family income = $137,580
Plano medium family income = $101,616
Her family home was sold in 2016 for $355,000, a solid middle class valuation.
Ms Ocasio-Cortez went to a private college, Boston College (annual tuition= $69,942), and she was an intern for Senator Ted Kennedy. She was an organizer for Bernie Sanders's 2016 presidential campaign.
Ms Ocasio-Cortez follows the same pattern that the Weather Underground followed: children of privilege turning to socialism.
