This post is based on a flawed premise: the author erroneously believes (or is deliberately dissembling) that health care reform involves a government 'takeover' of the health care industry. In fact, nothing of the kind is proposed. What is proposed is tighter government regulation of the health insurance industry, along with (possibly) a government-backed insurer alongside the private market. The entire blog post is one long Quixotian assault on a straw man argument.
