The reasoning for the ideological shift
During the COVID-19 pandemic, he was tired of witnessing the   become richer, mistreating their workers and sending small businesses to the dust. At the same time, he opposed re-imposition of lockdowns, which he felt as a "betrayal to the vaccinated".

Then, came the Russian invasion of  Ukraine, which he largely blamed on  Vladimir Putin's bureaucratic government system and imperalist ambitions, which made him shift more towards libertarianism and.

Overview
Neo-TDRHism's economic model takes inspiration from several ideologies, such as,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  left-social democracy, and. So, in essence, he believes in a market economy that is regulated and has a  to keep it humane.

He sees both /  and   as unreliable economic systems. The former due to it being stagnant and often leading to economic failure, and the latter due to it giving corporations the power to do anything they want, including exploitative/pollutive practices, which often leads to  forming.

[[File:Tripartism.png]] Mode of Production
His mode of production would be one based off of  and. He believes that there should be a compromise between the workers and upper class, and that the government should be a mediator between the two. As such, he is an advocate for, seeing as all classes do provide their uses for society.

[[File:Keynes.png]] Fiscal Policy
Neo-TDRHism considers himself a  in regards to his fiscal policy due to him supporting increase in social spending (e.g. child care, social care, unemployment benefits, and pensions). This is especially in economic recessions, where he supports an economic policy similar to the New Deal for economic recovery. Thus, he could be considered a new keynesian in that regard.

Despite his keynesian leanings, he also believes deficit shouldn't be abused, as he also believes a  is a top priority, however opposes economic austerity.

[[File:Trustbust.png]] Competition Laws
Neo-TDRHism wants to return the anti-trust laws of, seeing the US drifting away from them as a "step towards crony capitalism". Firms that are "too big to fail" must be broken up, as they are too big to exist and are inherently against the idea of free and fair competition.

These are the measures he'll implement to crack down on corporations: Also, he is against the idea of "corporate personhood", as corporations are not people, but rather, big businesses.
 * Break up all existing monopolies and trusts
 * Prevent the conglomeration of all existing corporations
 * Cut off all corporate subsidies
 * Ban corporate lobbying (which is just [[File:Klep.png]] corruption with a mask of [[File:Activm.png]] activism)
 * Put more regulations on what corporations can and cannot do (e.g. union busting and preventing workers from getting breaks will be prohibited)

[[File:Welf.png]] Welfare
Neo-TDRHism supports a strong welfare state, believing that the state should be paternalistic in terms of economics. He is also against the argument that welfare will actively lead to high unemployment, as welfare has generally been beneficial to the people.

Some welfare policies he wishes to implement are:
 * 1) Unemployment insurance (requires [[File:Synd.png]] or [[File:Guildsoc.png]]  membership, kind of like the [[File:Cball-Denmark.png]] Danish flexicurity system)
 * 2) Child benefit allowance (will function like [[File:Cball-Poland.png]] Poland's 500+ program)
 * 3) Disability insurance for people whose disability interferes with their ability to work
 * 4) [[File:Gero.png]] Social security and old-age pensions for those above 65
 * 5) Home childcare allowance
 * 6) Student grants to combat student debt
 * 7) [[File:UBI.png]] Universal basic income (this also includes NIT for the really poor)

However, he doesn't want the welfare system to be abused, and is a worker welfarist in that regard, believing welfare should mainly be for the disabled, elderly, homeless, and those who are genuinely not able to work. Despite his advocacy for a strong welfare state,  will not be discouraged as a method for helping the poor but rather encouraged, as they promote altruism, however they must be legitimate.

[[File:Bankocracy.png]] Banking
Neo-TDRHism believes that there should be a central bank of some sorts. However, he will allow private banks to exist, but how they are run depends on the size of the bank. He'll mainly encourage credit unions, however traditional banks can still exist.

[[File:Regulationism.png]] Taxes
Some taxes Neo-TDRHism wants are:


 * [[File:Georgist.png]] Land value tax (set at a very high rate)
 * [[File:EconProg.png]] Progressive wealth tax
 * [[File:Merit.png]] Inheritance tax (for the ultra-rich, not ordinary people)
 * [[File:Envi.png]] Carbon tax
 * [[File:Trustbust.png]] Low corporate tax (includes a digital service tax)
 * [[File:DvCoordination.png]] Payroll tax
 * [[File:Health and Safetyf.png]] Sin tax (this is to discourage harmful goods
 * [[File:Soccap.png]] Value added tax

[[File:DvCoordination.png]] Nationalization
Neo-TDRHism is usually skeptical of nationalization, as usually it does more harm than good. That being said, he believes that key industries should be nationalized, such as electricity, water supply, housing, healthcare, education, etc.

[[File:Univhealth.png]] Healthcare and Education [[File:Nooc.png]]
For healthcare, he believes that having a healthcare system like the United States would be nightmarish. Thus, he wants to implement a universal, single-payer healthcare system based on the British NHS. However, he believes that it is fine to charge people whose diseases are self-inflicted, such as drug addicts (yes this also includes smokers),  alcoholics, and  the obese. Also, despite his support for mainly public healthcare, he will still allow small private healthcare companies to exist, however they must follow regulations.

As for, there will also be a mix of public and private, however private schools need to follow the same regulations as private healthcare companies.
