Rookie Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez shot back at critics who say her progressive agenda is too radical and expensive, saying there’s nothing revolutionary about providing people with good jobs, health care and an education.

“When you can’t provide for your kids working a full-time job, working two full-time jobs. When you can’t have health care. That is not dignified,” Ocasio-Cortez told CBS’ “60 Minutes” in an interview that aired Sunday.

The 29-year-old newly minted House member is entering office with an ambitious agenda — including Medicare-for-all, tuition-free public college, and sweeping environmental protections.

“How are you going to pay for all that?” CBS’s Anderson Cooper asked her.

“No one asks how we’re going to pay for this Space Force. No one asked how we paid for a $2 trillion tax cut,” she said. “We only ask how we pay for it on issues of housing, health care and education. How do we pay for it? With the same exact mechanisms that we pay for military increases for this Space Force.”

Ocasio-Cortez, a self-described Democratic socialist, was asked about a comment from Sen. Chris Coons, D-Del., that if “unrealistic proposals” are pushed Democrats who just regained control of the House might look like they’re unable to govern.

“We pay more per capita in health care and education for lower outcomes than many other nations. And so for me, what’s unrealistic is what we’re living in right now,” she said.

Her proposal to increase taxes on the wealthy to fund her Green New Deal, which aims to eliminate carbon emissions in the U.S. within 12 years, was highly criticized.

Ocasio-Cortez, who seemingly came out of nowhere to defeat political power broker Rep. Joe Crowley in June’s Democratic primary, said her brand of Democratic socialism is not the type critics say are associated with economically troubled Cuba and Venezuela.

She said what she and her colleagues have in mind “resemble what we see in the UK, in Norway, in Finland, in Sweden.”
