@ezraklein, do you really enjoy being a leftist shill? Didn't you want to be an actual journalist at some point? What happened?
— J.G. Alt (@nycconservative) April 9, 2014
What happened was that he was always destined to be a shameless hack.
Ezra Klein's pitch for single payer today confirms that @voxdotcom is just age-old liberal tripe under a veneer of objective analysis.

.@EzraKlein thinks less competition and less insurers is the answer to rising health care costs. Mock him incessantly. #voxsplaining

"In one graphic." Looks as though we need to add 'humility' to the dead virtues list: https://t.co/F358goHC7W

If you think everything can be "explained in one graph" you're not as smart as you think you are.

@RBPundit I wonder if just maybe, the average doctor costs taxpayers more in the US or Canada.
That might be useful info in an explanation.
— Brian Faughnan (@BrianFaughnan) April 9, 2014
This might help answer that question:

Oh, Canada.

Why do many Canadians come to America for treatment @ezraklein?

Seriously, Ezra. Now we want to see more graphics. And don’t limit yourself to Canada. There are lots more countries out there!

It's even less in North Korea. RT @ezraklein: The case for single payer, in one graphic: http://t.co/G23ArW80CI http://t.co/gHJ5kSIkow
