Be the Party of No

George F. Will - A Regrettable 'Fix' on Health Care - washingtonpost.com: "As market enthusiasts, conservatives should stop warning that the president's reforms will result in health-care 'rationing.' Every product, from a jelly doughnut to a jumbo jet, is rationed -- by price or by politics. The conservative's task is to explain why price is preferable. The answer is that prices produce a rational allocation of scarce resources.

Regarding reform, conservatives are accused of being a party of 'no.' Fine. That is an indispensable word in politics because most new ideas are false and mischievous."


The GOP should EMPHATICALLY be the party of "no." It will serve both the nation and the party well.
