Master of Orion hit on this a couple times in a recent debate I had with him, and I just couldn't understand the argument he was making. One of the (many) reasons conservatives are resisting current efforts at health care reform is that it will lead to "rationing." The Republican "purity" test listed opposition to health care rationing and denial of health care to the most vulnerable ...

CATO: in a free market there is no rationing by definition because supply equals demand!! This is econ 101!! IF you want to buy a jet plane or health care but can't afford it or its not covered by your insurance that is not rationing, it is not being able to afford something you want!!

The government wants to limit coverage of preventative medicine for women. That's the first step to this government run health care. Next will be the death panels.
