Conventionally, neoliberalism is described as a doctrine that commodities and commercialises everything it can. It is the growth of markets into areas traditionally without them, the belief that choice is more important than standards, and so on. That's the basics, anyway.
What you might be thinking of is the tendency for American liberals to advocate for things like the welfare state, universal healthcare etc. That isn't neoliberalism, it is an ideology rather than a process.

- hkt 4y agoWell yes, that too. But the facts from around the world are that the market power of even benign retailers is less effective at creating high standards than regulation.
