‘“You Just Can’t Earn a Billion Dollars”: AOC Declares Billionaires to be a Capitalist
So, let’s try baseball:
“Shohei Ohtani signed a historic 10-year, $700 million contract with the Los Angeles Dodgers in December 2023, the largest in professional sports history.”
“Shohei Ohtani is projected to earn a record-shattering $125 million in endorsements for the 2026 season.”
Close enough to $1 Billion whether that is deferred income or not. Math is tough for the little envious Communist full of resentment at other people’s achievements.
Did he “earn” this money? Yup.
In fact as Shohei is Asian, then AOC is just another KKK racist in the Democrat Party.
Here’s an editorial headline you won’t read anywhere else:
By Thomas J. Duesterberg. I’m not familiar with him, but this is very good. Read the whole thing as they say.
China’s economy is weakening and dependent on Western economies to achieve its modest goals for growth. Demographic decline, high youth and rural unemployment, the near-bankruptcy of at least one-third of local governments, unsustainable debt levels, a Third World social-welfare system, and chronically poor or negative returns on capital investment are all reasons that China this year has the slowest official growth outlook in decades. Compounding the problem is the country’s dependence on foreign oil and gas, food and minerals.
Speaking of the WSJ they are, in my opinion, right again in their lead editorial.
Getting uglier and uglier (and it’s not over)…
