Ocasio-Cortez: we need socialized medicine for lower funeral costs

Crazy New York communist Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is probably my favorite Democrat. She’s so crazy and the media still loves her. Now she’s making the case for socialized medicine. Her reason for America needing it? Because it will reduce the cost of funerals or something.

“We’re paying for this system,” she said. “Americans have the sticker shock of health care as it is, and what we’re also not talking about is why aren’t we incorporating the cost of all the funeral expenses of those who died because they can’t afford access to health care? That is part of the cost of our system.”

“Why don’t we talk about the cost of reduced productivity because of people who need to go on disability, because of people who are not able to participate in our economy because they are having issues like diabetes or they don’t have access to the health care that they need?” she added.
