Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., a Democratic Socialist, suggested in an Instagram livestream on Sunday evening that it is morally wrong for women to have children.
"Is it okay to still have children?" asked Ocasio-Cortez, referring to her ridiculous Green New Deal and claim that the world is going to come to a halt in 10 years time.
"Our planet is going to hit disaster if we don't turn this ship around and so it's basically like, there's a scientific consensus that the lives of children are going to be very difficult," she said. "It does lead, I think, young people to have a legitimate question, you know, ‘Is it OK to still have children?' I mean, not just financially because people are graduating with 20, 30 a hundred thousand dollars worth of student loan debt and so they can't even afford to have kids in the house."
"But also just there's basic moral question like, ‘What do we do?'" she added. "And — and even if you don't have kids, there are still children here in the world and we have a moral obligation to them and to leave a better world for them."
