Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez promises “safe, affordable, adequate housing” for everyone. Meanwhile, in the real world, here’s a four minute video of what government housing is actually like.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal calls to

retrofit every building in America

and guarantees everyone the right to

Safe, affordable, adequate housing

“Every building in America” means you can’t opt out. You have to let the government employees into your home so they can do whatever Ocasio-Cortez wants them to do.

The government retrofitting every building in the country would be heavily invasive into people’s private lives. Think of all the horrible things that TSA employees have gotten away with while knowing they they can’t be fired, such as sexual assault of women and children, humiliation of people with medical conditions, and theft and destruction of people’s personal property.

Imagine these same kinds of government employees coming into every home in the country while knowing they can’t be fired. Imagine what they would do to people and to people’s property.

Now, regarding the promise to provide “safe, affordable, adequate housing to everyone,” I’d like to point out what government controlled housing is actually like in the real world.

In the four minute video posted below, the housing conditions at a three bedroom apartment at a public housing project in the Bronx in New York City are absolutely horrible.

There are rats, roaches, and black mold.

There are leaks in every room.

And every time the tenant calls maintenance to ask for repairs, the government employees always make up some bogus excuse for why they can’t fix anything.

And why should the government employees fix anything, when they know they can’t get fired?

And as all of this is going on, the federal government is giving them $30 million per week to make these repairs.

Since they’re not actually making these repairs, what are they really spending that money on?

The video also says that at other apartments in the same building, sometimes there is no heat, sometimes there is no hot water, and sometimes there is even no running water at all.

Here’s the video:
