"liberal economics" ? Seriously? This flowchart describes every POS robber baron capitalist for the last several centuries.

Economic liberalism is the economic theory of both American parties. Idk how it came to be applied to only the democratic party but that's incorrect. OP is presumably critiquing economic liberalism from a leftist perspective, of which the Democrats are not
