With universal healthcare and a relatively high tax burden as % of GDP, most Americans would be inclined to call Switzerland leftist, at least in certain important respects.

Even if it isn't, my claim is still true, since I never said 'every single country in the upper echelon is leftist'; I merely said leftist countries dominate, meaning most in the upper echelon are leftist.

Putin is respected in spite of having a KGB background, but people can respect that he is a MAN.

The USA Pres and EURO leaders are recognized by the people as pathetic spineless individuals.
