Candace Owens slams AOC for demanding higher minimum wage: ‘We should give her the Nobel Prize in economics’
Conservative author Candace Owens has blasted New York Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for her stand on minimum wage after she compared US’s to that of Denmark. AOC tweeted Tuesday night, March 2, “It is utterly embarrassing that ‘pay people enough to live’ is a stance that’s even up for debate. Override the parliamentarian and raise the wage. McD’s workers in Denmark are paid $22/hr + 6 wks paid vacation. $15/hr is a deep compromise - a big one, considering the phase in.”
Owens did not hold back against AOC while speaking on Fox News’ ‘Hannity’ as she said, “I will say this. With AOC you never let facts get in way of a good story. You know what I mean? That is her motto. Personally, I think we should give her the Nobel prize in economics. If we’ve got Andrew Cuomo winning an Emmy for his coronavirus briefings, despite the fact that he was allowing people to die, why not award AOC the Nobel prize in economics.”
