“I see nothing wrong with this. Waste is not a conservative value.”

By this reasoning, you must think the individual mandate in ObamaCare is also okay. After all, going without health insurance is not a conservative value.

The “value” is being free of government interference and meddling. FREEDOM is the conservative value at issue here.

You're confusing FREEDOM with FREE. Nobody's taking away your freedom to use plastic bags. Are you entitled to free plastic bags? This seems to be the "conservative value" most expressed on this thread. "Gimme my free bags! Gimme! Gimme! Gimme!"

And how you somehow equated my sentiments with support for Obama Care, I haven't a clue.

Really? When did cash on the barrel STOP being a conservative value?
