How are labor unions and social welfare doing in this America!
Are the republicans solidly social liberal then.
It sounds like it. I imagine the political and financial elites have gravitated towards the Democrats, who in the 1860s were to the right of the Republicans.
Good question Van555. It is a bit of a mixed bag economically speaking. The Democrats are more protectionist while the Republicans favor free trade. I haven't written much yet on labor unions or social welfare ITTL. I will have to give it some thought. It has been mentioned that there is a minimum wage ITTL, not so sure about social security or healthcare. What are y'all's thoughts?
