As Twitchy told you, TIME Magazine’s Charlotte Alter explained that millennials are so keen on Democratic socialism because, like her and TIME cover girl Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, they’ve “never experienced prosperity in [their] adult lives.”
.@AOC and I were born the same year. She was a Dunkaroos kid—I liked fruit roll-ups. People our age have never experienced American prosperity in our adult lives— which is why so many millennials are embracing Democratic socialism https://t.co/hG6iT5XUlv

That’s a steaming load of B.S., of course, but for the sake of our own amusement, we’re willing to indulge Alter a little bit because her complaining isn’t so much a stinging indictment of capitalism as it is a stinging indictment of Barack Obama’s presidency. See, if you actually read Alter’s piece on AOC, you’ll run across this interesting piece of information:

Kind of weird how without that huge mandatory Obamacare payment, she could have afforded her student loan payments. I feel like that's kind of a big deal about this story. https://t.co/iGmbZeHjsR

Well, whaddaya know?
I get why Ocasio-Cortez wants to repeal Obamacare now.

It’s like payback! But don’t worry — Medicare for All will totes fix the problem for everybody. And then we’ll all get to experience prosperity at last!
