Quote:Democratic darling Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez still hasn’t paid a six-year-old tax bill left over from a failed business venture.

Weeks after The Post alerted the freshman Congresswoman’s office to the outstanding tax lien from 2012, she still hasn’t paid it, state records show.

Brook Avenue Press, a company set up in the Bronx to publish books about city children, owes $1,877.56 in unpaid corporate taxes.

The state slapped the company with a warrant on July 6, 2017, two months after Ocasio-Cortez announced her candidacy to run against Democratic incumbent Joe Crowley for the district that encompasses parts of Queens and The Bronx.

Public records show the state dissolved the company in October 2016, which can happen when a business fails to pay corporate taxes or file a return.

A spokesman for Ocasio-Cortez, who has called for sweeping tax hikes on the rich, told The Post two weeks ago that the taxes would be paid right away.

Well, at least it shouldn't be too hard for them to garnish her wages.

Why is it that the politicians on the left seem to be the ones who always appear to owe back taxes that are never paid?

And yet they push for more taxes

Seriously?

"Stephen Moore, President Donald Trump's pick for a seat on the Federal Reserve Board, owes $75,000 in taxes and penalties to Uncle Sam...."

Well, owing taxes doesn't exclude you from running the Treasury, why should it prevent someone from serving on a board?

Not to mention, the right isn't the side constantly bloviating about people "paying their fair share"....
