from what I read, Frederiksen has also shifted the party to the left economically. she implemented earlier retirement and higher pensions—financed by increasing corporate taxes by 4% and taxing corporate real-estate appreciation—subsidized dental healthcare with a goal of completely including it in free public healthcare, taxed carbon at $40–$100 per ton (incl. agriculture), and campaigned on free public transport (no fare) for those <22. she also campaigned on some wealth tax this year, which is what gave me the impression, but chickened it out for the liberals.
she considers anti-immigration as being economically left as well due to being cheap labor for capitalists that displace unionized workers, which … is another reason why I hate economists, all of which reduce humans to statistics. but even excluding the anti-immigration, it seems economically left to me.
