I'm not making the point you think I was making. I wasn't arguing against you. If it was all Reagan's fault, the center left would have corrected it. But they didn't. They turned neoliberal when they got to power. They are now but weren't before.

neoliberal = capitalists

That's very simplistic. 19th century capitalism wasn't neoliberalism. The new deal era wasn't neoliberal but socdem. Neoliberalism is the flavor of capitalism introduced by Thatcher/Reagan/... it's not the same as capitalism.
