Re: The Greens - The New Radical Socialists
In Australia it seems that all the major parties are somewhat to the Left. The Liberals would be closest to the center, but they're still very much into redistribution and middle class welfare. Labor a bit more and Greens a bit more again.
Actual definition I'm not sure but I'd say that prioritising wealth redistribution rather than wealth generation is a defining characteristic of most (all?) socialist governments.What do we define as a Socialist?
Or Julia, a Socialist Agenda?
