The American Left consists of individuals and groups that have sought egalitarian changes in the economic, political, and cultural institutions of the United States. Various subgroups with a national scope are active. Liberal centrists believe equality can be accommodated into existing capitalist structures (commonly referred to as "centrists"). Socialists, communists, and anarchists with international imperatives are also present within this macro-movement. Although left-wing ideologies came to the United States in the 19th century, there are no major left-wing political parties in the US. However, many elements of the American Left are affiliated with the Democratic Party.

    WA My partner is having child support coming out for 3 of his children. He left his job of 37 years and got over $20,000 lump sum for holidays owing.
