Well, that hasn't been effective.

Unless, of course, this "liberalism" is a front for "socialism" which itself is a front for a corporatocracy that makes people increasingly dependant on the state and corporations.

The workers don't usually own the means of production in the US, so I'm afraid it can't be socialism, but there is so much harmful pro-corporate regulation that I wouldn't call it capitalist liberalism either. In my experience, most groups that claim to be an ideology just end up using a harmful, wildly distorted version of it.

Corporatatocracy is a front for oligarchy.

And a technocracy.
