OCASIO-CORTEZ: "You know, just as there is all this fear-mongering that government is going to take over every corporation and government is going to take over every business, or every form of production -- we should be scared right now because corporations have taken over government.
“And in my opinion, we should be wary of any entity in which both of those things are combined, whether it's one way or the other. And that's why the emphasis in 'democratic socialism' is on democracy. And it's not about, you know, it's, it's just as much a transformation about bringing democracy to the workplace, so that we have a say and that we don't check all of our rights at the door every time we cross the threshold into our workplace. Because at the end of the day, as workers and as people society, we're the ones creating wealth, not a corporate CEO, it's not a CEO that's make that's actually creating four billion dollars a year, it is the millions of workers in this country that's creating billions of dollars of economic productivity a year. And our system should reflect that."
