European Leftism

[Talentless]

At the moment at least, I am not offering any opinions in this thread on the following subject, I'm mostly curious about what Europeans think.

The European continent has been considered by many to have a left to far left slant (socialist) for a number of years. What are your opinions of that?

• If you agree with it, do you think the leftism is good as it is or needs to be lessened?
• If you disagree with it, do you think there is too litle leftism the way it is now, or too much?
• If you would prefer it to be less liberal and perhaps more conservative, which model of conservatism would you prefer to influence Europe?
• Same question but switch the philosophies.
• What are the main differences beween American and European Liberalism?
• Same question but switch the philosophies?

It might help if you define leftism..in some circles I may be considered a leftist just because I believe that anti drug laws are stupid and a waste of money. What exactly is a leftist ?

I'd prefer those whom want to comment to define it.
