Health Care Update: It Isn't Broken If Congress Doesn't Take It

In something called the "Dumbest Arguments Against Health Reform" is this gem:
It's not broken: Progressives dismiss this out of hand, but it's "not a practical argument—it's a moral argument," Waldman writes. "If a captain of industry can't buy better health care than the guy who cuts his lawn can, then the world just isn't functioning as it should."
Allow me to rephrase that particular argument in languge even a "progressive" can understand: If a Member of Congress CAN "buy" better health care than the guy who cuts his lawn can, then the world just isn't functioning as it should."

The rest of this guy's list is just as stupid...
