Well, I'm not really all that concerned with what the leftists do in literature. I'm concerned with what they do in power. If we don't actually have any in power in the US, then the only answer is "no data".

(And "literature" is a pretty poor way to try to refute the claim, which is what leftists do "in practice".)

The GP mentioned an engineering process and literature review. I answered their questions about how these problems are approached and what the process is. I think that's fairly adequate.

If you want to know what any politician will do in power, the process is to see what they are proposing, and to see what others with the same ideology do in practice in other places. If you want to know what the left would do, I suggest doing this.
