Things are <i>changing</i>, which makes it seem like we&#x27;re going left. It appears that way because by its nature conservatism resists change. But I don&#x27;t think there&#x27;s any genuine move to the left. It&#x27;s rhetoric from both sides.<p>I see little to no evidence that this country has moved left over the past 30 years other than GWB&#x27;s expansion of Medicare and Reagan&#x27;s Emergency Medical Treatment and Active Labor Act.
