AOC's solution to workers earning more in unemployment benefits than while working is predictably 'embarrassing'

AOC saw this tweet about some workers earning more in unemployment payments than they earned in wages while they were working before the COVID19 pandemic:

This is bonkers:

Roughly half of all U.S. workers stand to earn more in unemployment benefits than they did at their jobs before the coronavirus pandemic brought the economy to a standstill. https://t.co/sXDmXH0PJ3

And she knew what had to be done:

Maybe we should pay people more https://t.co/wwstuFh0i4

Spoken like someone who has no idea what she’s talking about.

Then open a business and start paying people more.

Maybe you should start a business and pay your employees whatever you feel like paying them. https://t.co/PlenvO9GEI

But “pay people more” just sounds so good, doesn’t it?

You're so embarrassing.

Don’t hold your breath. She’s nothing if not absolutely shameless.
