As a self-identifying neoliberal I share a similar observation and frustration. I think it was Adam Gopnik who pointed out that the left is great at pointing it problems, but bad at developing solutions. If they have a solution it's often too simplistic sand tries to go directly to the goal, ignoring all side effects. My canonical example here is rent control. The right on the other hand tends to deny that any problem exists or more recently just tries to rewind the clock. I now notice this frequently and it's quite disheartening.
