    Default Which of these two statements sounds more 'right-wing' to you?

    (1) "I want to privatise all schools and hospitals, and possibly even the army and the police".

    (2) "I want to expel all foreigners and jail all gays and sexual deviants".

    2 because 1 can conceivably be a libertarian idea. Privatization transcends the right-wing

    Well yes they are. However, given our often confused and back-to-front political discourse, does 'right-wing' refer more to social authoritarianism or economic libertarianism?

    What do you mean? That particular brand of libertarianism is very right-wing. On the left, even anarchists support communal ownership of key services, which lest we forget isn't (necessarily) the same thing as State ownership.

    You can give them any sense if you want, the habitual one is the second, economic restrictions can switch from right to left depending on country, but hard leaning social policies were mostly considered right-wing.

    It all depends on what you call "right-wing". In America, most conservatives talk more about morality and foreigners than privatization.

    Number 2, of course.
    Number 1 is just a liberal behavior, which I don't like at all, but I don't consider it as an extreme right wing idea.

    I totally reject number 2 because as I said you, I respect the sexuality of the people.
    What I don't stand are the groups which use the violence to manifest their ideas, like "modern feminists" that say all heterosexual men are rapists, bastards and misogynists, of those groups who in their manifestations don't respect public works and private properties, and they break and burn all that is in front of them.

    Yes and no. Obama's healthcare reforms were opposed with a zealous passion by Republican members of Congress, to the point where they were very botched and modified. And hasn't Trump partially reversed them? And the point about the US economy is that, given how it is already more capitalist-oriented than most, there isn't so much that can be privatised in the first place.
