Well, not being in the US, most exposure I've had to self-proclaimed "Progressives" is British neoliberals (mainly the New Labour types).

If "progressives" are indeed against wealth inequality (what in other countries is just called "being leftwing"), maybe it's as somebody else said that it's just that the people I've mainly run across claiming to be "progressives" were just liberals.
