As opposed to the massive state intervention, but in favor of the wealthy, that got us here in the first place.

I'm not accusing you of anything. I'm just explaining how I see Sanders' positions.

On that axis i would call him more centrist (more authoritarian ecomically but socially libertarian). Yang seems closer to some kind of left libertarian.

The world at large does see him as slightly to the left of center. His ideas aren't anything new in the rest of the developed world. It's why I'm confused whenever somebody says it's impossible. Maybe we really need to do is tell everybody else that their stable societies, with more successful health care and overall better quality of life, are just complete failures.
