    Except definition 2 (the one that’s applicable here) gets the order wrong when it comes to neoliberalism: “free” enterprise is priority one, to which the others take a back seat almost every time.

    An organisation betting on both sides is a textbook example of ideology taking a back seat to “free” enterprise and thus a very neoliberal thing to do.

        Except for the fact that most people think of the Democratic Party when they say liberal and, other than a few outliers, the governing philosophy of that corporation is neoliberalism.
