| Is New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez a closet fan of Ayn Rand and Milton Friedman? Probably not. But you could be forgiven for wondering that after the New York Democrat’s latest controversial comments, where she said “I actually think I have a lot of common ground with many libertarian viewpoints.” If only this were true. While yes, the far-left socialist does hold somewhat libertarian positions on issues such as military spending, immigration, and criminal justice, her overall political philosophy is the very antithesis of libertarianism. Ocasio-Cortez’s worldview is collectivist and statist, putting her in opposition to libertarian pro-freedom principles.
