Personally I think AOC symbolizes the Socialist attempt to destroy everything good America has ever been. I think from our founding at the Plymouth Colony (where most of the Pilgrims starved to death under communist sharing, until the governor realized the people were generally unwilling to work because they gained no direct benefit for hard work and felt their neighbors were being lazy. The third year had new rules for the colony, you kept and ate the fruits of your own labor, and that year there was a surplus and they created Thanksgiving...) Americans used to understand the benefits of hard work and have enjoyed the right to reap the rewards of their efforts.
