When people say this, they just seem to mean European countries have more universal healthcare than the US does. But /keeping/ your healthcare program after it's already been invented is conservative!

European parties are definitely not to the left of the Democrats on immigration or minority rights.



Nah, there's far more to it than that. Workers' rights, consumer rights, privacy laws, and strong regulations around corporations for a start.


The issue with new rights vs preserving existing rights also applies here I think.

Lina Khan's FTC is left of most of these though. They're trying to break up Google right now!
