Very liberal when it comes to social issues.

Economically, I used to lean left, but now I'm sick of the far left and I'm center right.

Reaganomics is a complete failure and destroyed the middle class. We already know what works, FDR proved it with the biggest middle class the world has ever seen.  It stayed in place until Nixon opened up China in the 1970's and Reagan started supplyside economics in the 80's, stopped enforcing anti-trust laws allowing the massive monopolies that we have today. This has continued even with current Democratic presidents. The Democrats are 1970's Republicans or at least Clinton, Obama etc.. However they are being pushed out from the party by people like Elizabeth Warren who has gained massive power in the senate. Bernie Sanders, Sherrod Brown and many others.  Remember with the TPP, 47 Republicans voted for it and only 13 Democrats joined them for Obama's horrible trade agreement. These Democrats are being pushed from the party as we speak.

BREAKING: In a rare display of bi-partisan support, Senators Elizabeth Warren and John McCain have introduced a bill to reinstate Glass Steagall and break up the big banks.

Bernie Sanders all the way.

Good on McCain joining Elizabeth Warren on trying to put Glass Steagal back in place, one of the biggest pieces of legislation that FDR put in place to stop the Great Depression from ever happening again. However it got Removed in 1999 with a Republican Congress and Clinton signing. Same with Nafta. So it's issue by issue. However Economically, no one I know past a bachelors or masters degree supports supplyside economics. Capitalists systems don't naturally create middle classes, they have to be created or they disappear or are so small that it's a very few on the top and middle.

However this will be my last post on this subject, as FDR policies will be back in place in the next 10 to 20 years. it's just a matter of time, the only people that vote Republican on average are Old white people, this is the data, I'm not being mean. Republicans know who thier base is, However they are losing massive ground every day, their base is literally dieing off. So with people like Trump making sure the new generations don't vote Republican, it's just time really.

Well, I'm not from the U.S. and South American left is so radical and makes American Left look tame.

If only we could get a left-wing like Obama.
