... being SHIFTED to the right
Common every day people don't consciously vote for or support right wing conservatives who won't support people but instead build up the already massive wealth of massively wealthy people. If people could just see through all that crap, we'd have a different political landscape. But the means of communications are also owned and operated by those people who want a right wing shift. People don't really want conservatism, especially in finance and social economics ... they want a sharing of the wealth, a chance at making a bit of money, a chance at saving their money and in taking some of the excessive wealth from the wealthy who don't need it and distributing it to everyone else. When you have a TV blaring at you, internet advertising, radio broadcasts, podcasts, marketing, newspapers, magazines telling you every single day and hour that conservatism is what you want ... chances are that is what you will think.
