How To Spot A Neoliberal?

I don't know if we can fix Biden so much as we can groom Kamala and hope America doesn't fuck up again. And she's got some flaws but some she probably learned from.

And a whole new generation of other folks as well. I lot of good people came out in the Democratic primary. They can all have enhanced roles in getting the ship of state on an even keel again.

IRONY!!!

I haven't seen one conservative poster put anyone on IGGY. :D:D:rolleyes:

Shit, not even liberals do that....it's almost exclusively a lefty thing. They know they can't argue their positions on their merits, so it's always talk shit and hit iggy.
 
^^^^^

Calling everyone who disagrees with you a sociopath is irrational! :D:cool:
 
What Is Neoliberalism?

Neoliberalism is a policy model that encompasses both politics and economics and seeks to transfer the control of economic factors from the public sector to the private sector. Many neoliberalism policies enhance the workings of free market capitalism and attempt to place limits on government spending, government regulation, and public ownership.

Neoliberalism is often associated with the leadership of Margaret Thatcher–the prime minister of the U.K. from 1979 to 1990 and leader of the Conservative Party from 1975 to 1990–and Ronald Reagan, the 40th president of the U.S. (from 1981 to 1989). More recently, neoliberalism has been associated with policies of austerity and attempts to cut government spending on social programs.

Free Market Approach to Public Services Is Misguided

One common criticism of neoliberalism is that advocating for a free market approach in areas such as health and education is misguided because these services are public services. Public services are not subject to the same profit motivation as other industries. More importantly, adopting a free market approach in the areas of health and education can lead to an increase in inequality and the underfunding of resources (health and education) that are necessary for the long-term health and viability of an economy.
Monopolies

The adoption of neoliberal policies in the Western world has been concurrent with a rise in inequality in both wealth and income. While skilled workers may be in a position to command higher wages, low-skilled workers are more likely to see stagnant wages.

Policies associated with neoliberalism tend to encourage the presence of monopolies, which increase the profits of corporations at the expense of any benefits to consumers."

It seems that the term has changed in the last 100 years somewhat. SO I thought I'd provide a definition. Your welcome.

Now Rave on!:)
