A lot of people think our region is ground-zero for a Socialist revolution in the United States. Are we really that dumb around here?

We are the first major city to have a declared Socialist on its city council — dopey Kshama Sawant. Sawant taught economy at a community college, so she must be really economically bright. She is the poster child for Socialism around here.

A few weeks ago, 28-year-old Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez won the Democratic primary for the 14th Congressional District of New York, and, as it’s a very liberal district, will almost certainly be the youngest woman ever elected to Congress. The problem with her is that she doesn’t know what she’s talking about, as interview after interview has revealed.

Now, here in our state, there is a headline in The Seattle Times, “.” It talks about a 30-year-old woman named Sarah Smith who is challenging 22-year incumbent Rep. Adam Smith in the Democratic primary for the 9th Congressional District. For Sarah Smith’s sake, I hope there aren’t a lot of parallels between her and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, because Ocasio-Cortez really isn’t very bright.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez wants everything for free and keeps saying that taxpayers aren’t paying their fair share. Our local taxes have skyrocketed. If you add it all up — the illegally-calculated car tabs, the skyrocketing property taxes, the sales tax, the gas tax — you almost certainly are paying more in taxes than ever before in your life. But this 28-year-old is telling you that you aren’t paying enough. She looks at money as a big pool of stuff “we” can have and redistribute to other people. Hey, yeah — if we can have government take money from other people and give it to us, why should we have to work at all? Why should anyone have to provide anything for themselves anymore?

If Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is the template for the Socialist revolution in Seattle, I am in fear. We’ve got some dopey voters in Seattle, as Kshama Sawant’s ascendancy can prove. The lack of thought, just the complete lack of understanding, makes me sick. There is such superficiality in the progressive movement that wants to move us toward socialism.

So The Seattle Times is hoping that socialist Sarah Smith will be able to challenge Adam Smith, we’ve got the rise of Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, and we’ve got Sawant flying high. Everything is going to be free forevermore.
