    While this is definitely a true flow chart, the headline is misguided. Considering the only difference between the right and left when it comes to corporations is how honest they are about their policies. The right says they will do it, the left says they won’t, and then they both do exactly the same shit.

      that’s not a left/right divide. it’s a right/further right divide. And even staunch conservatives follow (neo)liberal economics.

      This is a flow chart from a leftists/socialist perspective

        Then you have socialist governments wasting billions of the tax payer money to rescue shitty state owned companies. Look at Portugal with TAP and Efacec. Socialist party, billions of the tax payer money going down the drain. Those companies were partially or privately owned and the socialist party only rescued it to save these private owners investments.

        Liberal economics would actually be telling them to go fuck themselves and give no money to them.

            While this is true, most left leaning people still know how economy works and why it should keep on working.

            Germany is considered heavily left leaning nowadays. Especially in comparison to countries like the US. But that doesn’t mean that Germans are suddenly borderline communist.

                  Probably, but considering Germany as a left-leaning country is still rich.

                  It sounds more like your perception of Germany is a little displaced from reality.

                    It for sure is not. Germany is a social democracy. One of the most advanced in Europe.

                    Therefore Germany is heavily left leaning.

                    I don’t know what you would call the left at this point… Communism?
