Neoliberalism refers to a political-economic philosophy that has had major implications for government policies beginning in the 1970s and increasingly prominent since 1980– that de-emphasizes or rejects government intervention in the economy, focusing instead on structured free-market methods, and fewer restrictions on business operations and that the most important class of rights to expand are those of property enforcement, and of opening nations to entry by multinational corporations. In a broader sense it is used to describe the movement towards using the market to achieve a wide range of social ends previously filled by government.
It is generally hostile to protectionism, social democracy and socialism. It is often at odds with fair trade and other movements that argue that labor rights and social justice should have a greater priority in international relations and economics.
A stark contrast to the earlier entry.

The Democrats in America are nothing more than a bunch of Neo-liberals, and the Republicans are freaking Neo-cons!

Get the Neo-Liberal mug.United States: People who are either registered as Democrats or espouse liberal and leftist values (i.e. thinking gun control is going to stop mass shootings, higher taxes, defunding the police, supporting riots, supporting sanctuary cities and giving financial assistance to illegal immigrants, wasteful government spending, etc.). These people tend to no longer like the state they live in (or the region of the state they live in) either because of the results after they made disastrous liberal votes and elected terrible liberal politicians that have ruined the area in which they live or because they have caused others to leave the area because of the demands they have made on either the cities or the state in which they live leaving it a shell of its former self (See San Francisco, Seattle, Detroit, Baltimore, etc.) Upon realizing this uninhabitable living situation, they then fly off to other states or regions to only repeat their disastrous liberal voting and implementation of leftist policies that destroyed the places from whence they came.
Texan seeing a new neighbor: "How y'all doing? I see you just moved in across the street. Where y'all from? Maybe I can show you around and we can go to the local range to fire off a few rounds."
New neighbor: "Nice to meet you. We're from California. Thanks but no thanks on the offer to go "shooting", we don't believe people should be walking around with guns; citizens don't need guns which lead to mass shootings - that's why we have police!"
Texan: You Liberal Locusts make me fucking sick. Kindly leave Texas and go back to California!

latte liberals disapprove of school vouchers for kids in poorly run urban schools yet take their children to private schools, therefore avoiding the problems of public schools. Protesting the war in Iraq, yet support Tibet freedom from China, which would be even more bloodier

Get the Latte Liberal mug.a political philosophy perpetuating free-market economics, minimalist government, strong private property rights, non-interventionism, government disinvolvement in social issues, separation of church and state, and open borders. the word "liberal" was originally associated with these beliefs, but liberals eventually started promoting large government, closed markets, redistribution of wealth, and high government involvement in social issues. today, liberal is associated with the latter qualities. the newer liberals are sometimes identified as neo-liberals. in modern day, a classical liberal tends to self-identify as a libertarian, and the term classical liberal is used much less than it was 100-200 years ago. some libertarian causes, like the Mises institute, still commonly use the term.
