Does Matthew Yglesias Ever Tire Of Being Embarrassingly Wrong About Everything?

From The Federalist:

Matthew Yglesias is very smart. How do we know? Because he works for Vox, and Vox hires only the “smartest thinkers” and asks only the “toughest questions.” Seriously, that’s their motto:

The Vox wonks, 'the smartest thinkers asking the toughest questions,' tackle vexing issue of Gwyneth Paltrow. http://t.co/S9BYBbzGQr

Thankfully, I have a pretty tough question for one of the web start-up’s smartest thinkers: What does it feel like to be so consistently wrong about so many things?

He wrote an article for Slate Magazine lamenting how difficult is was to start a business. Something that virtually every businessman knows, but virtually every Liberal doesn't.

The topic du jour is the standard of care provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs. Secretary Eric Shinseki was just forced to resign from his position as head of the agency due to reports of widespread fraud and corruption throughout the department. And not just typical government corruption where bureaucrats enrich themselves at the expense of the taxpayers who fund them. At the VA, dozens of veterans died while waiting for care. VA bureaucrats hid waiting lists and forged data in order to collect extra bonuses. Although the problems were known for years, nobody did anything to fix them. That kind of corruption.

What does this have to do with Matt Yglesias? It turns out that one of the nation’s smartest thinkers made a lot of noise about how the VA is awesome. How awesome? So awesome that maybe the entire U.S. health care should be modeled on the VA.

Seriously. He wrote that. Many, many times. He even mocked anyone — even a prominent doctor! — who had the audacity to question the quality of care provided by the VA to the men and women who volunteer to put their lives on the line for the country.

The things is Liberals don't have to prove results, since they have good intentions.

I have a simple solution. We create a two tiered health care solution. Force those members of Congress, who voted for Obamacare, the members of the media who are cheer leading for single payer, et al, to join the VA and let the rest of us stay with the plan that we like and want to keep.

See how long they last?
