Miss Texas Ylianna Guerra backed America and capitalism at Sunday's Miss USA pageant.

At one point in Sunday's show, Guerra was asked whether the government should "impose boundaries on salaries of executives," according to The Blaze. Miss Texas responded by expressing support for America as the land of opportunity.

"If you work hard enough, you can attain anything," Guerra said. "This is the land of opportunity and CEOs—I believe they work hard enough for their money, so I believe they should be able to attain whatever it is they’re working for."
