Gop has declared WAR on Women and we all see it. What idiots. Florida, GOP has now introduced a bill to LOWER the $4.25 an hour minimum wage on waitresses to $2.18 an hour knowing most are WOMEN!
The GOP HATES women and we all see it. That's why the GOP will be voted out of Congress in 2012.
The GOP are no longer even Americans and only represent corporations and billionaires not the workers, elderly, women, teachers, children, the poor, or middle class.
Would you please end Title 4-D funding. This program Has tempted the counties to make illegal payments to judges. Los Angeles County is currently paying the judges an additional $57,688.00 per year per judge for a total of over 27 million per year. after the case of Sturgeon vs Los angeles County declared those payments unconstitutional the judges paid a lobbyist to pass SBX211 (Retro Active Immunity from Prosecution) Please remove the incentives to bribe judges.
The American people ARE serious about fixing our nation's fiscal problems. There are two factors that stand in the way: politicians, namely liberal Democrats interested only in regaining control of both houses of Congress and a president interested in reelection, and a public who know little or nothing about Congressman Ryan's reform proposals. Shame on a lazy (or simply biased) media and double the shame on the elected officials who DO know about them, but either ignore or misrepresent them fo
IF FOLKS ARE SERIOUS ABOUT OUR BUDGET THEY WOULD CONSIDER THE PROGRESSIVES PEOPLE'S BUDGET PLAN WHICH PUTS OUR BUDGET BACK INTO SURPLUS BY 2021 (10 YEARS)
THE PAUL RYAN PLAN TAKES 25 YEARS TO BALANCE AND OBAMA'S EVEN LONGER!
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 for jobs. I will work with Perry, Ryan and my other republican colleagues and take immediate action on these proposals. God bless the GOP!

Here is a start we can fire your cowardly ass and save $174000 per year (perhaps an additional $14,000 a year from the raise you gave yourself in your so called budget).
YEA,YEA DICK GET TAXE MONEY FROM EVERYONE (CORP) AND WIPE THE DUMP SMILE OFF YOUR FACE AND THE WRINKLING OF YOUR FACE! GOOD IDEA TAKE MEDICARE AND SOCIAL SECURITY BUT DONT TOUCH THE SUPER RICH! YOUR UNAMERICAN SPREAD IT FOR EVERYONE,YOU COCK HEAD! YES IM A REPULICAN
Thanks to liberal policies America can no longer afford to pay for medicare, social security, unemployment and many other services. We also need to lower the minimum wage to $2/hr in order to compete with China and bring jobs back home. Fiscally responsible conservatives like Paul Ryan and Michele Bachmann know this and are currently
working to end these wasteful handout programs and bring the minimum wage down so that America can be great again. God bless the GOP!
The intelligence and solutions-based approach of Paul Ryan vs the emotive drivel of the looney left is solid evidence that America cannot afford electing another democrat ever again. The real reason democrats hate spending cuts and budget regulation is because they are forced to expose details that how they've been funneling tax-payer dollars into shady liberal election slush funds, paying bribes, padding their personal pockets, and repaying those who invested in their campaigns with interest.
I am encouraged that after a five month absence Obama has finally entered the debt discussion. He will obviously need to be present for their any deal to take place.
Do you think the Republicans should compromise on taxes for political reasons? Do you think they will?
@UBSCARED Waaa you dumb ass, waaa you're innumerate...yeah, ok kid.You misrepresented what I have said, my comment was that revenues correlate with economic growth, not tax rates. Now concerning the #'s you threw out, using constant dollars; $968.4 billion in 1970 to $1,197.6 billion in 1980 and to $1508.7 billion in 1990, the cumulative real revenue gain was 23.7% under the high and rising tax rates of the 1970s, and 26% under the dramatic reduction in tax rates of the 1980s.
I have an idea, let's save money by not paying Paul Ryan and giving him health care vouchers. He is a disgrace. The people in Wisconsin who voted for this mess and the other mess named Governor Scott Walker should go get their heads examined LOL.
@TheTruthHurtsAlot3 Yeah big govt folks like you are good at siezing other peoples money arent you.Do you have anything of substance to offer since youcontinually attack intelligent efforts at stopping the emerging proverbial trainwreck So far the only thing I hear is "leave mah medicare alone" which all sides agree will end in people getting hurt financially or medically when govt attempts at price control ends up as meddling in the private sector &their doc won't take medicare patients anymore
Paul Ryan is an inconsiderate and evil scumbag who authored a budget that would leave the elderly to die due to lack of healthcare and the nation’s domestic infrastructure to decay, while insurance companies would reap more profits and the super rich would be taxed even less.
The idea that lower corporate & individual tax rates spur job growth is a 30-year REPUBLICAN LIE. Since the implementation of the REAGAN & BUSH TAX CUTS, America has LOST MORE jobs than at any other time in its history. Not collecting a FAIR SHARE of taxes from corporations& the wealthy has spawned a SERIOUS REVENUE PROBLEM which should be a matter of NATIONAL SECURITY. On the other hand, a WORKING MIDDLE CLASS with money to spend DOES SPUR JOB GROWTH._ AMERICA, REJECT THE REPUBLICAN LIE!
@poindexterwitkowsky raising taxes on"the rich"only encourages them to move the money that would be driving the economic recovery instead to tax shelters and municipal tax free bonds where they will earn more by not incurring the additional costs of higher tax rates. It will most certainly NOT result in an increase in revenues to the fed. When taxes were cut in the 20's, revenues rose 61%, when JFK cut them in the 60's, revenues rose 62%, when Reagan cut taxes in the 80's, revenues rose 99.4%.
@poindexterwitkowsky You're an idiot, I'm not going to have a conversation with that crap you just typed, less taxes puts more money in pockets, therefore more money we buy useless crap and put back into the economy, if you want to raise taxes then fine, but show me you'll be responsible with my tax money first
@poindexterwitkowsky but if the middle class is taxed too much than it wont have money to spend. GW Bush's tax cuts only failed because he didnt lower expenditures. im from azerbaijan and i know this.........
If Ryan's budget ever passed you'd have blacks, disabled people, old people and druggies committing mass suicide waves like Jonestown in every community. Imagine 100 million deadbeats dead. We'd balance the budget overnight. Mao did this, and look at how China's economy destroys America very year.
What numbers do you guys need to see to become worried about the fundamental health of our country? Debt / GDP at 93%. Deficit / GDP at 10%. Government spending at 41% of GDP. Inflation at 3.6%. US Dollar Index at 75. There's two solutions to this: BALANCE or BUST. Neither is painless I can assure you.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
@jbertclassic Don't forget 41,000,000 on food stamps, way over 9% unemployment, and $ 4.00 a gallon gas. I wish Ryan would run for president. He would clean Obama's clock.
If he really wants to discuss the drivers of our debt he should start with two unnecessary wars! That's what drove our debt to this point. If you are going to cut entitlement programs, lets also cut the taxes I pay into those programs! Corporations and that top 2% continue to receive tax cuts as Jobs continue to leave this country. Unless the people can purchase products, the economy will continue on a downturn. Without Jobs products will not be purchased! Tax cuts have never created JOBS!
@spiritogmusic moron get real, take a look at the way things are heading. RED for the win, Blue will only bring us more of the same BS that put us here now. On this 9-11 ten years later are you telling me we should have done nothing about the towers, about an attack on our great nation ? You sir are not an American people like you are what is ruining this country.
Everyone in Washington knows that Paul Ryan has been told he has a million dollar a year lobbying job for the health industry if he gets his health care law passed.
Here's how it works-he lies through his teeth to get it passed-the healthcare insurance industry makes billions more from vouchers while still denying it's customers health care.
Meanwhile this nigger gets a cushy one million dollar a year job as a lobbyist. Way to sell out your own people Ryan!
@daveusaz1218 The Republicans can't hide their agenda and execute it at the same time - not without relying on being able to fool all of the people all of the time. Wisconsin voters are going to clean house of these Republicans.
If you've ever read The Fountainhead (one of Paul Ryans favorite books), you would realize that Paul Ryan is the character of Peter Keating. He is a corporate lapdog, spewing forth the words of his lobbyist masters (Ellsowrth Toohey), without actually understanding the end result. This type of ignorant obedience we see here, displayed by Paul Ryan, is the real threat to everyones freedom.
Notice how all Repubs are praising him as genius? Just like Toohey's minions did in The Fountainhead.
The ONLY way to bring jobs back to America is to lower the minimum wage to $2/hr.
This is the only way we can compete with China. Paul Ryan and my fellow republicans need to act on this now. Employers also should not have to carry the burdern of paying for health care either. Go get em Paul!
@SGhockeychika4 Do you know what kinds of jobs I can get with a degree in that field? Is there high demand? I'd just like to give a better answer to those who ask what I'd like to do with an Econ degree.
@SGhockeychika4 What Ryan says and what he does are not the same. Just like the rest of the right wing. They are two faced and deal with issues in a dishonest and underhanded way! Nice try!
Ryan wants to give MORE tax breaks to the rich so they can build more factories overseas. This is a continuation of the Bush years where 8 million jobs were
outsourced. If this nigger has his way none of us will have jobs, health care, or social security! America deserves better!
Paul Ryan gets the best health care money can buy and you're payin for it-SUCKERS! Meanwhile, he's trying to privatize it so the industry can jack up your premiums (if you're lucky enough to afford them) even more than they are now. If you ever see this nigger ask him how much he pays for health insurance! BTW no one in Canada has ever gone banckrupt (you will if Ryan has his way) from medical bills. Say it with me 'SUCKERS"!
@TheKmbt Obamacare is already jacking up healthcare premiums at record prices. The estimate that Ryan's medicare reform will raise costs for seniors is only true under current price raises caused by the obamacare taxes on health insurance companies. With real healthcare reform, along with Ryan's medicare reform would see health care prices plummet. Right now someone can only buy insurance sold in their state, not from another health insurance provider out of state. This causes monopolies
Ryan wants to give MORE tax breaks to the rich so they can build more factories overseas. This is a continuation of the Bush years where 8 million jobs were
outsourced. If this nigger has his way none of us will have jobs, health care, or social security! America deserves better!
@esj8341 Yes, Social Security and Medicare MUST be fixed. However, as long as CONgress is approving multi-billion dollar aircraft carriers and multi-billion dollar nuclear submarines in a bankrupt economy, the entire budget will stay broken. We have to make the tough cuts before we can begins to fix the broken programs. A very large part of the Defense budget is NEW spending for a military that is already the most funded in the world.
Ryan and the GOP believe in choices!! That's right-if they have their way senior citizens will have to make lots of choices - one choice they'll have to make will be between health care and food! SUCKERS!!!
I pray to God that the republicans have their way. It will give me great pleasure to see all you inbred right wingers lose your jobs, homes, pensions and social security!
The GOP will privatize everything and that means you'll lose it- all of it! And that goes for your inbred kids too! Just PLEASE, PLEASE thinks of me and how happy I'll be when it happens! SUCKERS!
Is this the same idiot during the Bush admn put two wars, a prescription drug bill, farm subsidies Bush tax cuts to mention a few on the countries credit card now his found Jesus can someone please expose this fool on his hypocrasy
Neocons tried to privitize ssc, prisons the military now they are going after medicare i think given an opportunity theyl handover police and fire to corporations.
Wrong. According to Richard Foster, Medicare's chief actuary ObamaCare cuts $818 billion from Medicare Part A (hospital insurance) from 2014-2023, the first 10 years of its full implementation, and $3.2 trillion over the first 20 years, 2014-2033. Adding in ObamaCare cuts for Medicare Part B (physicians fees and other services) brings the total cut to $1.05 trillion over the first 10 years and $4.95 trillion over the first 20 years.
@esj8341 Spare me the numbers bull Its pretty simple they want to introduce a voucher system so seniors can shop in an insurance market where you dont get coverage if you have a pre existing condition or even if you get coverage its for 2 tylenols and a bandage if ur lucky. Tel u wat his a genius
Spare me your hyperbole, Medicare's chief actuary projects ObamaCare has cut 4.95 TRILLION DOLLARS from Medicare. Ignoring facts does not make them go away.
@esj8341 FACT ! Medicare, Medicaid the Dept of Vet affairs all govt healthcare providers r the best in providing medical services nothing comes close as far as service and affordability they might be in red but this is primarly a managment problem that allows thiefs to milk the system, i would say find these &% and lock them up for yrs but the idea that we should give vouchers to seniors or our vets and live them in the mercy of private insurance companies 2 save money. DONT THINK SO!
Wrong. Your claim that Medicare and Medicaid are "the best at providing medical services" is not a fact but an opinion. The truth is that Medicare is 1) incredibly inefficient and 2) going to go broke. Moreover, even your own Democrat party agrees Medicare is a not the best system or else they would not have voted into law ObamaCare which rips 4.95 TRILLION DOLLARS from Medicare alone over the next twenty years.
@eem974 Why should we allow people to be at the mercy of private internet providers and private auto makers and private airlines and private toaster manufacturers and private clothing manufacturers and retailers and private food suppliers and private computer makers and private schools and private cable companies and private pencil makers and private mattress makers and private gun manufacturers and private refrigerator makers and private mechanics and private doctors.
@daconqueror101 Theres a difference btn medicare and coca cola u stupid idiot. You tea bagger fucks think every service in this country is for sale to make profits people like u would sell there mothers for money. You are a disease to this country
@eem974 Ok so let's leave the most important parts of the economy up to politicians who know nothing about how things work because they get bull shit majors in art and journalism, and let's allow these oversize bureaucracies to manage everything, increase costs every year and never improve services and technology. Which economies have fared the best? Socialist or capitalist? Let me dumb it down a bit. Venezuela or USA? Exactly.
You socialists are a disease because you don't learn your lessons.
@eem974 Let me ask you another question. Has coca cola ever failed you? Does it taste good? Is it cheap?
Finally, you never rebutted my previous statement about all the private industries out there. Isn't the management of airlines important? What about dentistry? Is that not important enough for you? You also failed to address the housing crash.
Your views are inconsistent. They are based upon whatever is convenient for you.
@daconqueror101 If you want to compare Coca cola with medicare or if you want us to privatize our military in the name of capitalism so share holders can make profits out of it we have nothing to talk about
@eem974 I said nothing about privatizing our military. Don't put words in my mouth. As a matter of fact, I may be joining the Navy in a year. Under capitalism, the main role of government is to provide for the common defense, law enforcement and courts of law. You would know that if you read Ayn Rands book, Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal. Lying and/or being ignorant about capitalism doesn't make you win this debate or be correct. And you still have not discussed the other industries I mentioned.
@eem974 Oh yeah and another thing, I don't want the internet to be at the mercy of PRIVATE individuals like yourself. So maybe the FCC should create a regulation requiring everything you post on youtube to be passed by the commissioners. And guess what happens if there are 3 reps on the commission, you lose.
Doesn't feel so good when you are the "evil private individual" does it. If it wasn't for the private sector, you wouldn't even have a house. Tnx to the govt easy credit, many lost theirs!!
@VictoryRepublican 1998 DoD spending was $278 billion, projected DoD spending is $707 billion or 44% of the federal budget. All we are asking for is to return to pre "W" Defense spending levels. That would save about $400 billion per year.
I don't necessarily disagree. However, DoD spending spending is 19 percent of total spending. Medicare and Social Security account for over 44 percent. Contrary to Obama's economic policy/campaign speech the other day, shouldn't entitlement spending also be reduced?
Obama just offers attacks and deficits, and Ryan offers an actual plan. I will dance in the street when that bastard Obama gets thrown out of office, and if I live long enough to outlive him I'll piss on his grave..
the republicans are nothing, NOTHING but modern day pharisees. and paul ryans budget is kinda like scott walkers bill as scott walkers bill on collective bargaining, as he testified yesterday, saves $0.00. they talk about redistribution of wealth? seriously? they want to completely privatize healthcare and give an $8,000 credit to "go out on the market" and to be adjusted for inflation. but inflation is about 2.1% a year and health care costs go up around 2.9% a year. almost 50% higher. f em all
any talk about reducing the deficit without serious cuts to military spending are disingenuous at best. on 9-10-2001 rumsfeld came out and announced that the pentagon could not track $2.3 trillion dollars or 25% of its entire budget. and im so sick of congressmen saying the number one job of the government is to protect its citizens. they are suppose to protect the constitution against all enemies not the people. if they really wanted to protect people they would vigorously protect their health.
@pfog Only a fucking IDIOT would CUT defense spending when you are in three wars, when you have the Iranians developing a nuke and N. Korea getting fiesty. That's SUICIDE.
@VictoryRepublican my reply is 3 months late but are you seriously saying that even though the pentagon cant account for $2.3 TRILLION, 25% of its budget at the time, that there is no need to even consider a reduction? and youre saying that even though we spend more than all other countries combined on defense that a reduction isnt needed? or what about a temporary cap? it goes up every single year. wtf, man? and youre seriously citing n korea a viable threat?
This was not much of a victory as much of the cuts were for spending that was due to be axed anyhow. I feel more than a little disillusioned with the Republican leadership on this one.
@Lllburns ok look the elderly rnt even capable of making decisions for my future cuz their so old fashioned they cant adapt to anything. let em all die of natural causes the way its supposed, to be. hopefully clinton AND gingrich will die. but if not that at least i can get my grandmas sweet ass porsche. fuck u and ur grandma, AND HER 12000000 CATS!
Rush, just like you are obviously eating far more calories than you have burned off, the US government needs to stop buying more than they can pay for. Dieting like cutting spending is hard, but it can be done, don't you think?
@esj8341 o ur so clever u can do complex fat jokes! mwahahah. this ladies and gentlemen, is exactly the typical Liberal tactic. take something out of context and use it to slander the opponent. o and by the way im all for cutting spending, its liberals that want to tax and spend that put us in this hole. fuck u and ur fellow jamba juice employees.
70,000? Really? Let me start with that.... even if 70,000 won't be covered financially by the government (Which is actually a big stretch) Communities wouldn't help them out? Just because government won't help them doesn't mean communities won't. In any case it amounts to one tenth of 1% of all children. The bottom 50% of this country pay less than 5% of our overall tax revenue. When is 40% not enough? "To each according to their needs, from each according to their ability." Familiar?
@Lllburns He really is a bad person. His avarice is so obvious its amazing how many people who are not rich support him. He knows America is mostly ignorant and that the nation is beyond the point of no return, so bullies like him take clear advantage of that and prospect the remaining wealth.
If you're not wealthy youve no reason to back this incorrigible human being. People like him dont deserve to live in this country, -or anywhere at all. Its empirical fact the world would be better without
I pray to God that the republicans have their way. It will give me great pleasure to see all you inbred right wingers lose your jobs, homes, pensions and social security!
The GOP will privatize everything and that means you'll lose it- all of it! And that goes for your inbred kids too! Just PLEASE, PLEASE think of me and how happy I'll be when it happens! SUCKERS!
The Path to Prosperity. Puh...lease! Paul Ryan is the path to the gas chamber. Concentration camp, concentration camp, concentration camp! The man is a Nazi. He admits he is the far right of the Republican party and the far right has ALWAYS been the Nazi's. Once a nazi always a nazi. NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI, NAZI!
@sexisttroll actually unemployment is slowly being reduced it's now 8.8% and labor department says we reduced employment in 3/4 of us cities. It sure is taking a very long time to go down for sure
@UBSCARED you see... the thing here is that they do not want to reduce disposable income... we need to spur economic growth true job creation and the growth in the private sector, raising taxes = increase in spending... that is the nature of our government...
@UBSCARED insults aside I disagree with your idea, you see according to the expenditures approach gdp=X+G+I+C with G being government spending... look at the relation, its true higher taxes lead to a growth in gdp but that is just government expenses! but its not growth in the private sector there is less job creation... because of government spending you produce what is called the crowding out effect which skyrockets the interest rates which deters investment...
You can't have it both ways. You can't say we will cut taxes and then say we will cut our deficits and people won't be affected. People will get cuts in their services and benefits and cuts will bring the economy down in the short run and most likely put us into a depression
it endlessly baffles me how libtard morons like the one below always seem to conveniently forget that FANNIE MAE & FREDDIE MAC & the Community Reinvestment Act signed by BJ Clinton were just as responsible for the housing bubble that created this fucking disaster we all live in 2day. duh! FORCING banks to give loans to minorities & other people who couldn't afford them. ACORN & other fuckers protesting outside bank execs homes. OH but it's all Wall Street's fault. lying uninformed idiot liberals
@esj8341 What, balancing the budget for the first time in 2040 - that's rocking?! He is just another big government spender - a neocon. Rand Paul's Budget (ignored by media) balances the budget in 5 years, cuts taxes, abolishes Obamacare. He even cuts 500 billion in the first year alone. Ryan does not even touch the defense budget. RON PAUL 2012
Any conservative would be better than Obama. If it were between Obama and Paul I would vote Paul, however, I do not personally support Paul's overall foreign policy stance.
I doubt he'll run in 2012, but he might be the best candidate on every level except money. Christie/Ryan ticket would be a dream. Trump at the top of the ticket would give them to money to go against the BILLION dollars Obama is planning on buying the election with.
@ManOfDeath567 I am sorry but do you realise that Ryan's budget gets to balance the budget for the first time only in 2040!!! By then we would have gone through dollar and debt crisis! Rand Paul's budget balances the budget in 5 years time as well as including tax breaks. If you want to do Economics, I really encourage you. Have a look at the Austrian School of Economics, Ron Paul and Peter Schiff.
If that's the case, i would advise you not to study economics, because i promise you after about a year in your studies, you will start to realise how wrong he is, and you will just be dissapointed in your childhood role model.
I get it: He is well spoken, but Im afraid it really disguises the actual matter of the budget proposal. One subject that i can think of, is some of the spending he wants to cut, are things that would bring in revenue or prevent further costs in the future
1) IRS - monitors revenues to prevent people from cheating taxes.
2) Infrastrcture investments; in order for society to function, you'll need government-funded construction going towards the general people such as: airports, roads, railway, etc. etc.
3) Police department: defunding crime investigations can lead to ineffective crime-fighting,
4) Public education
5) Health emergencies
I could go on. point is, getting rid of these = loss of revenue.
@UBSCARED Your denial of the fact that the government can't controll spending, pretty much sums up the problem we now face. I would say you deserve what you vote for, except that you & your ilk are dragging those of us who don't relish the idea of economic suicide along with you into the abyss. The figures you cite to support your position are meaningless removed from context, which is typical of the bumper-sticker arguments of the left. I'd be willilg to bet your tax liability is a net-zero.
@UBSCARED lol what a tard, all the libs ever do is raise taxes. and what do you want to do with all this money that's not yours? make your own and get off the drugs, stop getting your opinion from comedy central.
@UBSCARED with all the name calling & school boy threats... your nickname fits... u are the one who seems scared... sacred at the realization your coveted political party is a tax and spend party, fiscally irresponsible, and morally bankrupt. Its the Democratic partys FAULT we have no 2011 & 2012 budgets. the Dems budget refused to address the drivers of debt and they got served! The HOPE & CHANGE Presidency has failed you, and has failed America. Now deal with it and stop living in the past.
Go Paul! The GOP must get the elites under control because all they care about is power, not doing what is best for America. Let them "lie and demagogue" but have the backbone to giver Americans the truth and a real choice. And let the chips fall where they may because if the American People reject this, they have made the bed their children and childrens children will see this country die in.
And people! You don't need social security if you just invest your money for the long term starting early. I'm sorry for you older folks but a new younger generation is going to become less government dependent. Build your money instead of just throwing a bit in a savings account. You won't need the governments money.
THINK PEOPLE! Less government taxation leads to a growing economy and ultimately the government ends up with more money anyway. It works for everyone.
A decade of investment in a healthy and prosperous future resulted in a record United States Surplus. A decade of inequitable taxation and environmental degradation has resulted in record deficits and health costs bankrupting America. Ryan, Tipton and the Tea Party are creating a sick and stupid future. Please Rupert, numbers don’t lie but Ryan, Tipton and the Tea Part doo! We are reaping what we have sewn.
In response to 1976donzi - your ignorance is reflected in the language you choose to use in your comment. Get educated before you add more ammunition to your opposition by opening your ignorant mouth. Rally on Tea Party.
This little widow peak fuck has taken it up the ass from every billionaire in this great nation of ours. Why do you think his beady little eyes are bugging out all the time? This asshole won't even be around after the next election. He loves the death panel-Sara said so.
@UBSCARED It doesn't matter how much you bring in or what percentage it is of GDP. As long as you spend more than you bring in you'll always be in debt and the debt will continue to increase. So the problem isn't revenue, it's spending. Something you tax and spend liberal/progressive/dimoKKKRats can't/won't grasp.
Paul Ryan ..... your honesty rings the "Liberty Bell! ". I n these times, it is unusual for one to put his loyalty first to his family and then to his country. We are so lucky to have you for our congressman. We are kept well informed and you respond to all of our inquiries. No one else has come up with a reasonable solution to our "POOR" country. With God's help, continue to press forward.
If the DemocRats refuse to give in on more Cuts let the Government shut down, and let them go home we the people will have to abolish the democRattice coggress. then we can have the viote with out them as they have done themselfs.

Dear Mr Ryan
Would you please end Title 4-D funding. This program Has tempted the counties to make illegal payments to judges. Los Angeles County is currently paying the judges an additional $57,688.00 per year per judge for a total of over 27 million per year. after the case of Sturgeon vs Los angeles County declared those payments unconstitutional the judges paid a lobbyist to pass SBX211 (Retro Active Immunity from Prosecution) Please remove the incentives to bribe judges.

The American people ARE serious about fixing our nation's fiscal problems. There are two factors that stand in the way: politicians, namely liberal Democrats interested only in regaining control of both houses of Congress and a president interested in reelection, and a public who know little or nothing about Congressman Ryan's reform proposals. Shame on a lazy (or simply biased) media and double the shame on the elected officials who DO know about them, but either ignore or misrepresent them fo

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 for jobs. I will work with Perry, Ryan and my other republican colleagues and take immediate action on these proposals. God bless the GOP!

The intelligence and solutions-based approach of Paul Ryan vs the emotive drivel of the looney left is solid evidence that America cannot afford electing another democrat ever again. The real reason democrats hate spending cuts and budget regulation is because they are forced to expose details that how they've been funneling tax-payer dollars into shady liberal election slush funds, paying bribes, padding their personal pockets, and repaying those who invested in their campaigns with interest.

@poindexterwitkowsky raising taxes on"the rich"only encourages them to move the money that would be driving the economic recovery instead to tax shelters and municipal tax free bonds where they will earn more by not incurring the additional costs of higher tax rates. It will most certainly NOT result in an increase in revenues to the fed. When taxes were cut in the 20's, revenues rose 61%, when JFK cut them in the 60's, revenues rose 62%, when Reagan cut taxes in the 80's, revenues rose 99.4%.

@TheKmbt Obamacare is already jacking up healthcare premiums at record prices. The estimate that Ryan's medicare reform will raise costs for seniors is only true under current price raises caused by the obamacare taxes on health insurance companies. With real healthcare reform, along with Ryan's medicare reform would see health care prices plummet. Right now someone can only buy insurance sold in their state, not from another health insurance provider out of state. This causes monopolies

Adding in ObamaCare cuts for Medicare Part B (physicians fees and other services) brings the total cut to $1.05 trillion over the first 10 years and $4.95 trillion over the first 20 years.

@UBSCARED insults aside I disagree with your idea, you see according to the expenditures approach gdp=X+G+I+C with G being government spending... look at the relation, its true higher taxes lead to a growth in gdp but that is just government expenses! but its not growth in the private sector there is less job creation... because of government spending you produce what is called the crowding out effect which skyrockets the interest rates which deters investment...

sure when it comes to gdp yeah we are growing but when it comes to reducing unemployment... we aren't...

You can't have it both ways. You can't say we will cut taxes and then say we will cut our deficits and people won't be affected. People will get cuts in their services and benefits and cuts will bring the economy down in the short run and most likely put us into a depression

@esj8341 What, balancing the budget for the first time in 2040 - that's rocking?! He is just another big government spender - a neocon. Rand Paul's Budget (ignored by media) balances the budget in 5 years, cuts taxes, abolishes Obamacare. He even cuts 500 billion in the first year alone. Ryan does not even touch the defense budget.

B of A also paid ZERO!
And we'll take it out on the working class! Nice!
Yeah, we can't afford ANYTHING--but tax cuts for the rich. YES!
Paul Ryan says nothing about the bank/wall street folks who actually caused the economic collapse. They're doing great now! NICE!

@ManOfDeath567 I am sorry but do you realise that Ryan's budget gets to balance the budget for the first time only in 2040!!! By then we would have gone through dollar and debt crisis! Rand Paul's budget balances the budget in 5 years time as well as including tax breaks. If you want to do Economics, I really encourage you. Have a look at the Austrian School of Economics, Ron Paul and Peter Schiff.

If that's the case, i would advise you not to study economics, because i promise you after about a year in your studies, you will start to realise how wrong he is, and you will just be dissapointed in your childhood role model.
I get it: He is well spoken, but Im afraid it really disguises the actual matter of the budget proposal. One subject that i can think of, is some of the spending he wants to cut, are things that would bring in revenue or prevent further costs in the future

@SawViking How is spending more gong to bring in more revenue?
ManOfDeath567 10 months ago
@ManOfDeath567
Excelent question. here's a few:
1) IRS - monitors revenues to prevent people from cheating taxes.
2) Infrastrcture investments; in order for society to function, you'll need government-funded construction going towards the general people such as: airports, roads, railway, etc. etc.
3) Police department: defunding crime investigations can lead to ineffective crime-fighting,
4) Public education
5) Health emergencies
I could go on. point is, getting rid of these = loss of revenue.

@UBSCARED Your denial of the fact that the government can't controll spending, pretty much sums up the problem we now face. I would say you deserve what you vote for, except that you & your ilk are dragging those of us who don't relish the idea of economic suicide along with you into the abyss. The figures you cite to support your position are meaningless removed from context, which is typical of the bumper-sticker arguments of the left. I'd be willilg to bet your tax liability is a net-zero.

@UBSCARED It doesn't matter how much you bring in or what percentage it is of GDP. As long as you spend more than you bring in you'll always be in debt and the debt will continue to increase. So the problem isn't revenue, it's spending. Something you tax and spend liberal/progressive/dimoKKKRats can't/won't grasp.
