But I don't think she and her band are the
responsible response. Once
free everything becomes a way you can get elected (esp to the White House) democracy is toast.
We already have free everything. It's just not being directed by a Responsible Republican from the 1970's. Trump cut a check for $30 Billion to give to farmers with zero planning or thought. No one cared.
But more directly to your point: you're simply wrong. Every EU nation has more of the "free stuff" you're decrying, and not only are they doing fine, they are kicking our *ss in almost every category. Health, education, etc.

What I would love to see from the Dems is a good old fashioned Hubert Humphrey style democrat who is pulling for the little guys and defending them from the big money interests. Pro labor. Pro small business. If the dems are happy being the party that throws out outrageous ideas in the hope of moving the discourse but never actually winning the White House, then AOC is their gal.
You're assuming that voters never die, and millenials will never vote. And we'll never have a recession.
That said, I'm a moderate: I prefer YOUR path to what AOC is touting, obviously. Where is AOC's counterpart on the right? AOC is presenting voters with a choice. That's what makes our Democracy run properly.
As it stands, I think we can agree that we've had precious little choice at the ballot box over the last 20 years.

I don't understand how the dems have fallen for the globalist bs. I understand the appeal of the veneer of
let's all live in peace as one. But what about the beauty and sanctity of cultures? A move to one world order is the elimination of all cultures and everything they have to offer. More importantly, globalism has really only been about corporate profits....
Globalism has worked great for the top 10% earners in America. That's who attends those $1000 a plate dinners that fattylax used to make fun of....
THAT is why Clinton et. al. fell for globalism. They were paid to do it. And more and more Dem voters are catching on every day.
