I certainly agree w/ Paul Ryan that the Social Security entitlement must be addressed.

But what some people arent aware that this tax is now capped at $110k

REMOVE THAT CAP & THE PROBLEM IS SOLVED

[ronme1995]

You're worried about Ryan destroying Medicare? You have no clue what the 'Patient Affordable Care Plan' is already doing..especially to old people. Obama did say at least once, "Well, we can't take care of everybody". In the original bill, the word secretary was in it over 2,000x, included Health Secretary or Treasury Secretary..pretty evenly. Physician/doctor was in it less than 400x and almost all was about imposing new regulations/less pay. Read the Bills people before you judge!!!

[Theblaze584]

Also Ryan shit on Gregory right there.

[Theblaze584]

@thekmbt. You are honestly slow.. you claim to be a patriot yet call Paul Ryan "nigger" haha

[TheIndependentView]

Compromise is not a word in the GOP's vocabulary...Its not too along ago that they undermined the country's economic stability because they would not budge on getting what they want 100%. Remember the Debt Ceiling debacle. They complained that they only got 98% of what they wanted before voting to raise the debt ceiling. Compromise?...Yeah, they did compromise...they compromised this country's best interest for their own agenda. Everyone in Congress should be ousted!

[ronme1995]

A 1.5 Trillion cut in 10 yrs? They just spent over 5 Trillion in 3 yrs. Do you realize how much more spending is in the bills Obama wants passed? You know taxing the rich won't change your life or make your check any bigger, right? Not even if we take every penny they make for the next 10 yrs. It may send more of our companies overseas. I only care what's on my check. The tax regulations imbedded in everything we buy is nothing now. What will hit us in 2013 after the election? Read thomas.gov!!!

[acchokiefan]

I I were ever in the presence of GOP kicksbutt I would punch him repeatedly in the face repeatedly. His bloodline should be eliminated from humanity as DTUPID has finally been recognized as hereditary. Every Saturday afternoon, we should all get a bag of popcorn and some beer and head put to the shark tank $5 per seat and then watch fish eat away at a worthless DIPWAD like this. Just after his demise, we toss in his family members too. No mr nice guys for child molesters and dipwads. Shark tank

[GOPkicksbutt]

Thanks to liberal policy the world economy is crashing. We must do two things to stop the meltdown NOW!!! Firstly, we need to raise all payroll taxes 10% for one year. We also need to stop (right now) wasteful handout programs like medicare, social security, unemployment,, etc. and lower the minimum wage to $2/hr so we can compete with China. I will work with Perry, Ryan and my other republican colleagues and take immediate action on these proposals. God bless the GOP!

[51516]

@GOPkicksbutt $2/hr? FUCK YOU ASSHOLE!

[runtimmytimer]

@poindexterwitkowsky could you actually post something intelligent in the comments section of these videos instead of copying & pasting the same rhetoric. The interesting thing about this whole evil rich people nonsense is the fact the politicians in DC create the regs that allow certain people to have an advantage. The very thing Rep. Ryan opposes & is trying to eliminate. Occupy DC and protest the corrupt politicians, the people making the rules. Demand honesty & integrity in Washington.

[poindexterwitkowsky]

~~^~^~^~^GOP's Paul Ryan uses"projection"when ACCUSING Obama of"class warfare". CLASS WARFARE is what REPUBLICAN$ have been waging for the last 30 yrs. Since the Reagan& Bush tax cuts, the wealthest have been paying less tax than at anytime in America's history. More jobs have been lost in said period than at anytime since 1929. PAULIE,everyone form NY to Janesville,WI (your hometown)to Seattle knows that YOU are out to DESTROY MEDICARE.~~^^TAKE YOUR CORPORATE DONATIONS& RETIRE.YOU'RE FINISHED.

[USfutbol]

@poindexterwitkowsky Obama recieved more corporate donations than any other presidential candidate in history.

[TheTruthHurtsAlot3]

Drop dead Ryan. You're the most evil person in Washington.

[abola2121]

@TheTruthHurtsAlot3 Moron.

[LOVELIFE54]

@TheTruthHurtsAlot3 ... Paul Ryan makes a lot of sense and obviously you never took economics !

Best Wishes !

[TheTruthHurtsAlot3]

@LOVELIFE54

If he makes sense, then you're a moronic imbecilic idiot. Why in God's greenest earth can you not see thru this crap? We are the RICHEST country on earth, right? But yet we don't have the money to give people Social Security (which they pay into anyway and it's not a "gift") and Medicare for our elderly? LOLOL Keeping drinking the Fox News Kool-aid you effing jackass.

[LOVELIFE54]

@TheTruthHurtsAlot3 .... You sound like a real low class act ! I will defintely not stoop to your mentality level and I certainly will not converse with someone like you that may know what the issues are but have no idea how to solve them ! You have no respect for other people's opinions and that is very unfortunate ! Still I wish you the best !

[TheTruthHurtsAlot3]

@LOVELIFE54

Because when people don't get it, people like Hitler come into power. Wake up. Don't be deluded. Have a nice day

[LOVELIFE54]

@TheTruthHurtsAlot3 ... You have a great day also ... And My best to you and to this country that we love !

[TheTruthHurtsAlot3]

@LOVELIFE54

I love it too. That's why all teabaggers should go off on an island and subjugate other and not us. bye

[cdbingham]

Very well spoken, Rep Ryan, very well spoken!

[ballajd]

Rep. Ryan continues his education of the liberal mind.

[CPAsheldon]

Keep up the good fight Paul Ryan. You understand this and you are pursuing the best answers for American jobs. More power to you and those who agree with you. I do hope the voters give you a better Senate to work with in 2012.

[Nokomisclub]

One thing Ryan is saying is: If the burden of regulation and taxation is too high, you cripple upward mobility. Too high a price to pay for policies that may make libs feel good, but have been shown to fail already. It is disingenuous to quote statistics about the "bottom X%" over decades, as some will be stuck there over decades no matter what (drug dependance), and others will have moved up by their hard work, replaced by others who have just started.

I can't watch that MTP weenie without thinking of how great a host Tim Russert was.
