IMO ideally the center should be fine with government provided socialized services and regulation to fully support society, offer everyone the same advantages to change their economic status to middle-class, and prevent wild disparity and capture of the system by wealth yet still allow for people to achieve wealth that, does indeed, allow for some excess but not at the expense of society.

    Wouldn't most just call that Left?

    What's missing that would then move that to be Left?

    Yes. The center should be what people in the US would call left.

    Ok but what is the difference between what you just said, and the actual left?

    The actual left where? In the US? What the popular view of the left is or what people think is far left? We don’t have a “left” in the US, just some mildly socially liberal politicians that barely try to control gov budgets and protect rights, and a few people that are on the fringe with little power that might brush up against leftist policy once in a while. The “actual left” is something we don’t have.
