    neoliberal

    You keep using that word as if you comprehend it.

    both parties have been neoliberal since the 80’s

    Nope: repeating yourself doesn’t make it true.

    Neoliberalism is a libertarian free-market capitalism movement.

    Name variants of the free-market revival movement include classical liberalism, economic liberalism, free-market liberalism and neoliberalism.

    Neoliberalism is a laissez-faire capitalism, right-libertarian ideology

    Modern liberalism is not for free-market capitalism.

    most synonymous with the ideology known as social liberalism

    with support for social justice and a mixed economy

    Economically, modern liberalism accepts a role for government to protect against market failures, protect competition and prevent corporate monopolies, and supports labor rights. Its fiscal policy supports sufficient funding for a social safety net, while simultaneously promoting income-proportional tax reform policies to reduce deficits. It calls for active government involvement in other social and economic matters such as reducing economic inequality, expanding access to education and healthcare, and protection of the shared natural environment, in large part on the contention that advances in those areas create a thriving economy in the long run.

    Major factions of the Democratic party are modern liberals & progressives. The progressive congressional caucus in their party is one of their largest.

    Read them facts & weep.
