    To get the crowd to quiet down at the @Ocasio2018 victory party, the speaker is yelling mic check -- crowd yelling back mic check. For you kids, this is from Occupy. Occupy is coming to Congress.

        Going to be a painful process for #Democrats to rid their party of all their respected old members to make way for the new wave, candidates like @Ocasio2018 show the promise that lies just beneath the surface. Real, down to earth candidates that have the ability to connect w/ppl

        The party leadership really loves to throw money and support behind candidates with problems like "people don't enjoy voting for them"

        No Ryan, the media picked it up during the Occupy movement. Mic Check actually goes back to the old anti-Nuke protests in the 70's. Not everything was invented by millennials.

        Yes Phil, I know that mic check has been around a long time. Like you said, the media picked up on it during Occupy, and that's where the folks at the AOC party picked it up. That was my point.

        I’m actually a millennial would disproportionately fund the tax system that would supposedly be able to fund the Medicare for All, free public college tuition, and guaranteed federal jobs platform the candidate ran on. Not sure how that would at all function without those like me

        Oh please, all that could be paid for by adequately taxing the rich and corporations; instead your side is doing the opposite which is exploding the debt. Fiscally responsible?

        No, no, no...Congress creates US dollars when they approve spending. The Fed Gov ISSUES the currency - they don't need an income!

        No reply yet - but it really is that simple. Congress approves spending. That is where US dollars are "born". They "die" when they are taxed away. They recently approved a huge military soending bill & then passed a Fed tax CUT! Our Fed taxes R necessary - but not to "pay for".
