Australia has traditionally always been far more left wing than the U.S.
Murdoch is seen as a right winger here. Our current "left wing" government is far more right wing than any government we've ever experienced here.
Historically, right wing idealisms have always failed because of the simple fact that humans are innately selfish. Left wing idealism understands that simple fact.
I don't think that we have "evolved" from anything due to religions, philosophies, idealisms, politics, dreams..or whatever.
However, education does advance us all IMO. The free will to choose when provided factual information does advance the quality of the decisions made.
You can be "one pointed" and say that capitalism is the true worth of humanity because it agrees with your ideas, but also you are disregarding the worth of humanity that has come before you or that which may come after.
A true belief in equality will let others follow their own path, but too many times that path eventually crosses other paths.
IMO it comes down to the wisdom of balance...just like Buddha said.
