https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoliberalism

Neoliberalism (neo-liberalism) refers primarily to the 20th century resurgence of 19th century ideas associated with laissez-faire economic liberalism.

By that definition they never really existed and the only neoLibs out there doing it are now called Libertarians.

"Neoliberalism is a policy model of social studies and economics that transfers control of economic factors to the private sector from the public sector. It takes from the basic principles of neoclassical economics, suggesting that governments must limit subsidies, make reforms to tax law in order to expand the tax base, reduce deficit spending, limit protectionism, and open markets up to trade. It also seeks to abolish fixed exchange rates, back deregulation, permit private property, and privatize businesses run by the state."

Seems a little more reality based.

It's giving socialism a suit, tie, TaxID# that only select homies get and calling it free market capitalism.

Hillary Clinton breaks President Obama’s 2012 spending record with $1.2 billion campaign

He may be a billionaire, but President-elect Donald Trump showed during the presidential race that he knows how to stretch a buck.

The Republican candidate and his backers spent only half that of Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton and her supporters on the way to his Nov. 8 victory, according to media reports on campaign spending released Friday.

The Clinton campaign, Democratic Party and pro-Clinton expenditure committees and PACs spent a record $1.2 billion, twice as much as the $600 million laid out by the Trump camp, Republicans and pro-Trump groups, the New York Post reported.

The latest Federal Elections Commission figures back Mr. Trump's assertion six months ago that there was no need for him to amass at least $1 billion to run a successful race against the former Secretary of State, given the former reality television star's ability to draw free media.

"There's no reason to raise that," Mr. Trump told Bloomberg in June. "I just don't think I need nearly as much money as other people need because I get so much publicity. I get so many invitations to be on television. I get so many interviews, if I want them."

Mr. Trump estimated at one point that he would need to spend $100 million of his own money, but wound up contributing $66 million, about a third less than anticipated.

While both campaigns went on a spending spree in the final stretch, Mrs. Clinton was left with only $839,000 on hand by the end of the election, while Mr. Trump still had $7.6 million.

Hillary couldn't win even with a Billion dollars! Maybe if he Demos had spent a bit more on the Senate they could have at least sent Mitch back to the shadows? I thought Hillary was sharing her largess?

Top Democrats plot path forward after November disaster

AVENTURA, Fla. — It was Russian interference. Or FBI Director James Comey’s meddling. A travel schedule that omitted Wisconsin. Years’ worth of disengagement from state-level politics.

The potential explanations for Democratic losses in November are endless, and far from Trump’s inauguration on Friday and the massive marches against the new president on Saturday, roughly 120 of the Democratic Party’s high-level donors and strategists who spent the weekend tucked away at a peaceful golf resort here came no closer to a consensus on what went wrong.

Many of the party's top players flew south to discuss the path forward, and they committed to investing more in opposition research initiatives and war rooms, to pay more attention to state campaigns, and — in a popular decision among a crowd full of Hillary Clinton supporters and absent much Bernie Sanders support — to avoid further acrimony within the party.

But the primary refrain about 2016 remained the same: "What went wrong? Everything."

While the "Top Democrats" debate why they lost, they refuse to admit that Hillary was not a candidate their base could trust. Hillary 1.0 lost to a black man, Hillary 2.0 lost to an idiot. Hillary was out polled by Bernie but the Demo's fucked him because he was a populist and not a puppet.

Democrats have lost the states legislatures, Governors and most of Congress in the last six years. They obviously have no fucking clue what the American voter wants in a candidate. It's not rocket science, it's the economy! Not jimcrackery tactics but adhering to Democratic ideals and not fluffing Wall Street's dicks.

Considering the push back Trump has received since last Saturday, why do the Demos think that the people will support the same old shit from them?

Reform the Democratic Party or face the Resistance!​
