FEE’s Hannah Cox writes, “So to summarize, Ocasio-Cortez is selling sweatshirts that say ‘tax the rich’ at a price most poor or working class people could not reasonably afford. She’s making money off of her merchandise that attacks the creation of wealth. And her excuse for all of this hypocrisy is that it costs more to buy from whole-sellers who pay a “living wage” and use American labor. There’s a lot to unpack here.

Whether she’s selling expensive “tax the rich” sweatshirts, or wearing expensive “tax the rich” gowns at expensive events, #AOC‘s hypocrisy knows no bounds.https://t.co/tCJCNYbzrX
