As far as I'm concerned, social democracy is center left. Maybe there's a difference between European and NA perspectives. I live in a social democratic country and I have to say life is pretty good.

Well, the post is about leftists wanting to give health insurance to people. That sounds very North American (or more specifically, USA) kind of focus. So that’s the context I went off of.

Isn’t it funny though that your satisfied with living in a social democracy and I’m advocating for it yet we had a polarizing discussion cause we focused on labels?

Also, for context, I’m Canadian and would consider the liberals centre left and NDP (what I vote for) as far left.
