Barbara O'Brien on Health Care

Two posts from Mahablog, here and here. She makes some compelling arguments and points out some disturbing facts (especially disturbing to the anti-health care libertarians and money uber alles Republicans, since they have no counterarguments except that it's "socialized medicine," which isn't an argument, it's a scare tactic from the 1930s -- you know, the Reagan era).

Read these, and then think about Megan McArdle and the "immorality" of universal health care.
