Truly dangerous, because it's utter lunacy. The majority is left of center, and when it all gets broken down by positions, even more are farther left than they realize, socially in particular. Most of the more fiscally conservative don't even want most of the social programs cut. It's the idiot politicians that have moved right. Side: Dangerous

inside the right wing strategy room "IF WE TAKE OUT THE LEFT THEN NONE ARE LEFT!" Some white rich man "I don't hate the left people, they're a great people I mean they are rap-" "Artists... Rap artists..." Says the autocorrecting Telecom which he needs even in private board meetings. "Yes what was it I was saying? Yes those leftie folk, very bad for the nation my Parents woulda slapped me silly if I'd been left handed and then slipped $200 in my pocket for being a good boy once I picked up the pen in my other hand." Silence and awkward glances "Yes, so let's... Wait what does this say?" He stammers "Jesus, could we not find a better puppet than this guy?" Comes a dark unidentified voice from beneath... 666 forms in the floor... Side: Dangerous

Not the people - the politicians have moved right. That's what I just said. But you will also find the majority of people have followed suit, for the obvious reason that they don't want to feel like political outcasts. The American citizenry is without question further right than the European citizenry. Politics works in a similar manner to news. The TV/newspapers tell people what the news is and they discuss it. Politicians tell people what the political choices are and they discuss them. In this, both are able to set the parameters for public debate. They don't control the answers, but they do control the questions. Side: Innocuous
