Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is out to prove she is the Thomas Jefferson of the infantile social-justice progressive Left. Bye-bye Amazon, bye-bye FedEx, bye-bye Boeing, bye-bye American Airlines, all domestic aircraft. Only in 21st-century American progressive politics would that zany experiment be taken as a possibly good idea. Difficult as this is to write, however, O-C’s Green New Deal does have two incontestable values. It is the social-justice, intersectional and Marxist elements of the Green New Deal that are the burden of her plan.
