Neoliberalism to me is:
* the transfer of public institutions and funds to private hands
* lowering of tax rates
* vast deregulation of trade, environmental, finance, consumer protection, etc.
All of this is positioned in that it will grow the economy and create wealth but what it really does is create a situation where private wealth can grow at the expense of public wealth, health, safety and prosperity. The negative impact of these policies can be seen around the world.
