Paul Ryan Offers Amendment to Strike Government-Run Health Care Plan

[Dlanorepmart]

This rich guy is an asshole!!!!

[TheIrieGamer]

It is easy for this guy to go against reforms that will help the middle class american because he comes from a family with a very profitable family-owned business. He's last budget proposal focus on tax cuts and subsidies to big oil companies. Big oil companies don't need subsidies, they are the only ones not being affected by this economy, they still make millions, if not billions, annually.

Hey Paul Ryan I assume YOU DON"T have government run health care right ? Since your against it I assume YOU DON"T HAVE IT... Right Mr Ryan

For-profit insurance can only exist by killing people that cost them too much money. That is why Universal Care is impossable under Ryan's Roadmap.

PAUL RYAN YOU FAIL

[genYprogressive]

Paul Ryan criticizes Dems for taking money out of Medicare yet his roadmap will kill Medicare and Social Security as we know it.

Why would anybody support this congressman who hates the American people so much and loves the insurance companys so much that he wants them to pay twice the money for a system half as good as Canada's System.

Feeling unrepresented, ignored, held in contempt by your "public servant" you sent to Washington to represent you? Go to...RECALLCONGRESSNOW(dot)ORG­...to see what remedy your state may provide for dealing with rogue politicians. Citizens of the following states may be able to take immediate action to recall elected Federal officials. Colorado Louisiana Michigan Montana New Jersey North Dakota Oregon Washington Democrat thugs violated the Privacy Act and don't allow comments on their postings

[TZurf]

Thank you Rep. Ryan you are the light we need in office

[Craig60]

He is the man!!!

[NateJones893]

This guy is GREAT!!

[MrDripdrop]

If u vote yes to the public option then you are a buttfuck

[sreynauch]

Who is he? I love what he is telling us but I have no clue who he is. Speak on! No to public plan.

[superbooks7]

Thank you , thank you and THANK YOU... if you like your own insurance you will NOT be able to keep it. That is a guarantee.

VOTE NO on the public option.

[superbooks7]

JUST SAY NO to the so-called "public option". IT is a lie, there is NO option. The pres wants it passed EVEN when no one has read the bill..and even though he will not give the cost of the bill.

VOTE incumbants OUT if they vote for this bill.

THANKS FOR POsting this video.

[pixy6925]

name one program the government runs that works. Say NO to this health care scam. No to BIG government. Stay out of our affairs.

[SK3Nives]

Yea the bailouts(corporatism) weren't reviewed either but that didn't stop it from whizzing through legislation.

Federal Reserve Act of 1913(corporatism) bankrupt the nation in 20yrs. creating

Social Security(indentured servitude)

National Defense Act of 1947(dictatorship)

Patriot Act(direct violation of the Constitution of the United States of America AND the Bill of RIGHTS!)

I could go on these are some of the big ones though

But remember the PATRIOT IS THE MAJORITY the media is lying!

[dilauroj94]

if you told me one person voted for this bill after this man's speech, id be shocked. it basically outlines every problem with the bill. so why is it still floating around? why is barack obama still pushing for something that will not benefit the majority of the american people and the majority of the american people is against it.

[smallaxe100]

Smart argument indeed. Worrying about what others are doing and paying must be why you're on Ryan's page in the first place. His plan dubbed "Patients Choice" will give the folks who do their hair and nails twice a week, and have large cookouts only to fast days before their welfare check - another handout. $2,300 for individuals and $5,700 for families. Smile.

[Elaine02424]

I have private insurance and want to KEEP it! I know some of these people that don't have insurance prefer to go out and get their hair and nails done TWICE a week, go out to eat OFTEN, and clothes shopping once a week! Then bitch because they can't 'afford' health insurance! I KNOW because they are family members! ENOUGH ALREADY! Just like welfare people, gimme, gimme, gimme! Food stamp people have LARGE cookouts the first of the month then whine they can't afford to eat come 31st!

[lobo4159]

ELAINE02424, Very well said!

[Elaine02424]

Thank you ... so sad, but VERY true!

[grabarc]

Ditto on knowing dumb spenders, Elaine, except many of the people I know spend it on car parts (e.g. monster stereos, rims that are more expensive than the car, two-foot tall spoilers that don't really kick in until 170mph on a car that can only do 105 if you push it, etc) or buying one of every video game console and game for it that comes out.

And before someone screams "RACIST", as always happens when I say that; the car guys are as white as rice in a snowstorm...

[funkyflights]

@Elaine02424

Really Elaine.... Then can I ask you this question.... How come I haven't been able to purchase private insurance all my life because of a pre existing condition ? I don't get my nails done.... I don't buy expensive cloth's and I follow all the rules.... NOW with the new health care law I can finally purchase private insurance for myself... FOR 600 dollars a month... with a 2,500 dollar deductible.... Sorry but I can't afford another rent payment to be insured...

[Lloyddobbs]

I want a BILL PASSED requiring ALL BILLS to be voted on be SWORN to have been read by the Elected who are to vote on it.

[MagicMan2475]

I swear if the government starts running this Obama is going to become a dictator

[lobo4159]

He already has

[MagicMan2475]

Oh yeah that's right, I forgot he was about to take over the auto companies as well as healthcare...hmm well they asked for it I guess, I wanted Mccain but I just got made fun of, guess they deserve it

[carhac66]

yet, he admits he has not read it, but he knows what's in it? something is not right. why does he not present an amendment to outlaw medicare, medicaid & republican prescription drug plan?

[dapple33]

Oh well, here are some other statistics.

76 percent of Americans are for a public option, while only 20 percent of Americans appose.

54 percent of patents are dissatisfied with the medical outcomes.

71 percent of Americans or in favor of ensuring everyone.

Mr. Ryan is only referring to the 77 percent OF CURRENTLY INSURED PATENTS, of which only 48 percent are happy with the outcomes, and only 19 percent are happy about the cost.

Public option is backlash reaction to the abuses of the Industry

[dapple33]

Please note, I know it's spelled patient but I ran out of space.

[lobo4159]

Where did these statistics come from? They're way off from every economist journal (liberal and conservative) I've seen in recent months.

[pandabead]

THIS GUY SHOULD RUN FOR PRESIDENT.

[randomglen]

republicans got to STOP THIS SHIT BILL !

[smallaxe100]

Ryan forgot number five: the public plan doesnt have 1/3 of the money designated for health care confiscated by fat cat CEOs and insurance racketeers. Thats the part he is fighting for.

[MrQuickwit09]

you forgot number six: you're an idiot.

[Eliron1234]

...and you are telling me that that does not happen with the government? If you listen again...he says, "let's make the private sector insurance work... develop legislation that will reign in the "fat cat CEO's" you are talking about and help us still have a choice while keeping them in check!

[smallaxe100]

Reign in the Fatcats!! If 1/3 of our health care premiums are gobbled up by middlemen, I think the government should be able to compete with that by offering insurance for less. The private sector and dividend collectors bash the government as incompetent, yet the government is the first thing they turn to, to bail them out of their risk taking. Ryan holds a double standard of action depending on whether the solution benefits main street or wallstreet. He is a symbol of our problems.

[lobo4159]

I guess that politicians don't get kickbacks..... Right!

[smallaxe100]

1/3 of the money designated for health care is confiscated by fat cat CEOs and insurance racketeers AND because politicians are on the take too, we should just ignore it all. Let this so-called "free market" continue to bilk the system. It'll all work out - right?

Over the past ten years, Paul Ryan received $1,143,560 in campaign contributions from the health care industry.

[lobo4159]

I didn't infer that we should sit back and do nothing. There are problems that need attention, major attention, and these are partly those that you pointed out. BUT, the government can't run itself withut screwing up, why give them something else to screw up?

[velton3]

This man needs to run for President!

[20blink20]

Hallelujah for Rep. Ryan! I want to know where it says in the U.S. Constitution that everyone is guaranteed health care at all (much less 'affordable' health care), affordable housing, or any of the myriad things that this administration is trying to control. This may sound harsh and uncaring, but everyone, especially politicians, needs to read or reread that document, along with the Declaration of Independence and the Federalist Papers. Perhaps then we can get this country back on track!

[echovarde]

I elect officials because I assume that they are smarter than I am and have the time to investigate proposed legislation.... I would feel more comfortable knowing that congress and the president would put themselves under this "new" health program... it is my understanding that they are excluding themselves from this new, great and improved medical program

[markhurt1956]

It's not "soft" tyranny; it's just tyranny. Tyranny is defined as follows: an oppressive, severe, and unjust domination. This bill is tyranny. It needs to be defeated.

[ilovebrewers2]

Way to keep fighting for what most Americans believe in. Thank you sir.

[cradloff30]

It is so sad to actually see our government in action. Ryan seems to make sense. How did he ever get into office?
