Not to mention personal freedom issues. |
Sexism/racism - about the same here. Actually I would say having lived in Texas that racism is systemic there and not here.
Free speech - Patriot Act is far worse than anything in Europe. Obama can claim to be against it but he allows it and similar to continue
Personal freedom - DMCA is again worse than anything here. TSA checks. Online gambling being banned. I'd say it's about the same to worse
Immigration - The UK admits many more types of people than the US and it's MUCH easier to get a Visa for any reason.
Other reasons in article don't hold up, please give specifics.
Meanwhile on Education, Health, Policing, Defence and Welfare we are to the left. Economic policy is similar. Social/moral policy our moderate right wing is to the left of nost Democrats and our status quo is CERTAINLY in the liberal direction on issues like abortion, religiousity, and gun control.
