I find it difficult to see where Prisoner, sorry, President Trump fits in.... a lot of the definitions of him show has actions/thoughts to be a neo-lib (less tax, less government, private property rights, control over judiciary) but then his views on gobalisation and protectionism seem very much at odds to the classical neo-lib ideology. Maybe it's just that the orange tanning solution has entered his brain!!

I'd like to buy your house's water infrastructure and lease it back to you at exorbitant cost, at the same time as investing nothing back into it so that when it fails you'll still have to pay me for the next 50 years.
Oh and when you're bankrupt I'll buy your house for nothing.

Well unfortunately for you, with competition and alternative suppliers, I will just use someone else to supply my water infrastructure and you will have to compete with them and have a very competitive service and pricing point to win my business back
The single biggest driver being China's economic rise, rather than western exceptionalism.
But you live so far away from the rest of the world there is no competition. Plus the person you sold out to will have a monopoly, even though they're not supposed to, but their rich mates in government have ensured that's the caseWell unfortunately for you, with competition and alternative suppliers, I will just use someone else to supply my water infrastructure and you will have to compete with them and have a very competitive service and pricing point to win my business back

Cooked him.
China? You could say some parts are free market, but it's not a free market system - a state-capitalism model? You could argue they have one of the more successful capitalist models. Although I'm def not advocating for authoritarianism. Is there a sector they aren't dominating?
Nope just providing counter point that the last 45 years of the neo liberal agenda according to @MaybeTop8 has led to unprecedented levels of safety and comfort.
I am far more left on some topics and far more right on others.
