Did the meaning of "neoliberals" change? Didn't that mean conservative economically liberal people like George W. Bush and Dick Cheney?

Neoliberalism is the guiding ethos of both the Republican and the Democratic parties since at least the 80s. Austerity, deregulation, gutting worker protections and social services. Every single president since Reagan has been a neoliberal of some form.
