THAT, though is the fear and the problem. Rarely do things shift back, unless there is some sort of huge change (like the stagflation of the late 70s... remember before Reagan [and the problems under Carter], the Rockefeller/Nixon branch of the Republican Party was dominant, and Goldwater was just someone who failed horridly. Remember Nixon created the EPA and was pushing for universal health care... in the 1970s).
