AOC comes off as somebody who has no principles other than money and power. Most politicians are like that. They get a large proportion of their income from lobbyists and bribery. They don’t bother read bills that they vote for or sign, because they don’t get paid to do that. They get paid to do what lobbyists and interests groups tell them to do. All that money they get from the taxpayers are nothing more than bonuses. This is regardless of which political party a politician belongs to, with very few exceptions. This is why I hate politicians. This is why I encourage people to build strong tightly-knit communities and buy locally. This is why we should be less dependent on government and stop treating it like a parent - a society that treats the government like a parent is a degenerate society.

How do you think society should treat the government?

Like a service to utilise when you cannot rely on your family or on the community.
