When you allow the debate to shift so far to the right, you lose the politicial space to end up in a safer, more productive middle. You look at the health care debate [of 2009]. That could have and should have been a debate between a single-payer system and some market-driven reform things on the right end. Instead you got market-driven reforms on the left and death panels on the right. And so we ended up in the middle. Better than zero, but not nearly the positive impact we could have had if we had a healthier set of boundaries to begin with.
