{{Quote|quote=When Marx and following theorists wrote on capitalism they weren't writing 'capitalism and liberalism are worst things to ever happen to humanity, they are the greatest oppression of workers'. No. Marxism is supposed to be an extension of liberalism not a rejection of it, a true promotion of unity, fraternity, and freedom, and liberty, and shit. That's what Marxism and that's what leftism is about, it's about bringing the messaging of the liberal movement forward, to make it better, to make it get stronger, to make it true to its principles.|speaker=[https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC1E-JS8L0j1Ei70D9VEFrPQ Vaush]}}

But when in power he supported the country's [[File:Liberal Democracy.png]] liberal democratic model, while still taking strong measures to combat poverty, encourage land reform, and expanding healthcare services. He expressed desires to move to a [[File:Socdem.png]] [[Social Democracy|social-democratic]] economy but figured that it wasn't possible due to the circumstances at the time (the fall of the USSR and the ascendency of [[File:Neoliberal-icon.png]] [[neoliberalism]].)
