anecdotal evidence is anecdotal
getting an econ degree from BU and tending bar is a waste.

Completely fair point. But this situation certainly comes with some qualifiers.
Is it highly doubtful that AOC would've been content with being a bartender. If so, why did she bother finishing (or even attending) college?
From what I know about her, it's fairly obvious that she is a very idealistic person who surely would understand that bartending isn't exactly the type of professional experience that would advance you very far up either the private or public-sector ladder.
Her jump from bartender to congresswoman was an utter anomaly. You can't tell me that she planned it out like that.
So the question remains...why was she bartending?

Yeah, I think they just have AOC derangement syndrome. They sure do give outsize attention to a freshmen rep.
I know bartenders that love their job, and make good money. I don't know if they make 6 figures but they have a nice middlecass lifestyle. The problem with those jobs is that the hours fricking blow. I know a barista that makes $75k+ and only works 4 days a week but her hours are awful.
Also, an economics degree isn't as useful as other degrees, especially without more degrees. Source: have econ degree. its not as bad as some of my other degrees (philosophy) but its not as good as say computer science.
