Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez To Debate Her Economics Professor Opponent
2018-09-25
h/t Instapundit
Democratic congressional nominee and self-proclaimed "Democratic Socialist," Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, has agreed to debate her Republican Congressional opponent, Dr. Anthony Pappas.

According to a press release from the Pappas campaign, the debate has been arranged and will be hosted by Queens Latino, a local spanish-speaking newspaper. The debate is tentatively set to occur at a school auditorium.

Pappas, who is an Associate Professor in Economics and Finance at St. John’s University’s Peter J. Robin College of Business, plans to confront Ocasio-Cortez on her endorsement of socialism.
Any bets on how long into the debate before she accuses him of sexism and/or racism?

#6  So an economic "Prof" is ignorant of rent-seeking and cannot work out what to do about it.

Whackademia.

Ocasio-Cortez and Pappas probably agree on many of the things listed.
