Town Hall Attendees Boo And Scream Liar As Paul Ryan Wants To Cut Taxes On Corporations

[poindexterwitkowsky]

```Hey Republican PAUL RYAN...Remember the scene in ANIMAL HOUSE where OTTER says to FLOUNDER, "Y ou f____ed up....You trusted us!"Well you are FLOUNDER & OTTER represents your institutionalized GOP buddies. When your plan to DESTROY MEDICARE(((class warfare)))) runs it's course & your GOP buddies admit it was always a bad idea, YOU, PAULIE, will be made to take the fall. So take my advise. Stash your CORPORATE DONATIONS. Accept one of those lucrative lobbying jobs & "start drinking heavily."

[rickbar123]

You people voted that shit head in, now toss that fucking scum bag out.

P.S. Paul, China charges American companys manufacturing in China a full 50% partnership fee, right off the top of every dollar earned, plus bribes, plus a 100% technology transfer up front. That technology was usualy paid for by the American taxpayer via the military industrial complex. Fuck you Paul, some Americans still read books.

[mbmart2005]

These guy does not care about the poor or middle class. He only goes to bed with Corporations, the rich, Wall Street and special interests groups or lobbyist.

[junebug32482]

This is your golden boy remember!!!!!!!! You voted him in and you thought he was on your side LOL!!! He said everything you wanted to hear until he got there. Now hes messing with your stuff, now you cry. Can you imagine if you SSI was in the stock market. You would have nothing and I mean nothing think about it. You wanted him you got him now what are you going to do????????????

[vdarte]

FUCK Ryan, the tea baggers, and the Republican right-wingnuts. Independents and moderate republicans, wake up! If you think things are rough now, wait until the douche baggers take over. Let’s give more tax breaks to the rich so they can pocket that money, ship more jobs overseas, and retire to their villas in the Caribbean.

[jct3636]

he don't care what you want he's trying to tell you the way it's going to be unless you get out and vote for RON PAUL 2012

[playon51]

Vote these fucksticks out of office ASAP.

[MrScottrocks]

it so easy to fool the middle class.....

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

[kederaji]

@GOPkicksbutt Are you a troll, or just a moron?

[playon51]

@GOPkicksbutt Social security is a "Handout" program? People have been paying into it their entire working lives and scum like you want to take it away. It's not a handout it's a trust fund that workers pay into. They expect that money to be there.

[syzygy502]

@GOPkicksbutt Social Security is money that was paid into by the people you idiot. They want a good retirement and don't want criminals, traitors, and terrorists like you stealing their money.

[vdarte]

@GOPkicksbutt FUCK YOU, YOU STUPID ANARCHIST ASSHOLE! Let’s cut your wages to $2/hr, and if you don’t have a job,let’s stop your unemployment. You probably don’t have a pot to piss in anyway. GOD DAMN THE GOP!

[Tommyidol420]

@GOPkicksbutt $2/hr? What the hell are you smoking? Minimum wage should be at least $10/hr you incompetent prick. Read a fucking book once and a while. Start with Upton Sinclare's "The Jungle", you might learn where your type of thinking gets people. Go drink a bottle of bleach you waste of space.

[jackthenigger]

why did these old peasants vote fore the elitists asshole? this country is filled with sadomaschist who like to be abused.

[tw1704]

You cant keep running that same old bullshit on the people.

[2010CAS]

hahaha this is the shoutdown i keep hearing about? lol most of the pple are telling the heckler to let ryan speak and the "liar" comment is conveniently said right before the end of the video without hearing ryan's retort or full crowd reaction.

and they say conservatives like breiibart do all the selective editing.

[ToddAldrich]

Too bad you didn't show the whole town hall. They were CHEERING him once he had a chance to explain his plan. Why didn't you show THAT???

These people were only reacting to the LIES that assholes like YOU have spread about Ryan's plan. Once the truth was told, they changed their tune.

[gpruitt54]

Did this guy refer to those in his audience as the peanut gallery? WoW!

[RobVanMeter]

Why has FOX news turned our country on each other?

[tarossi400]

Here's a group of folks that want special treatment in society at the expense of all the others.

[mjgon64]

So if your expressing yourself he's going to ask people to leave ... basically it's a take it and "eat it" or leave because there is nothing else happening ... lower taxes on the Rich and Higher Taxes on the Poor ...

[kn9ioutom]

@glstexas EISENHOWER YEARS ! CORPORATIONS PAID THIRTY FIVE PERCENT OF TAX ! VERY RICH PAID NINETY PERCENT !!!!!

[kn9ioutom]

REBUPLICON PRO RICH ANTI LABOR POLICY CAUSED THIS MESS ! SOCIAL SECURITY IS SELF FUNDED !!!!!

[conchf]

The RyanNoCare plan cuts the top individual and corporate tax rates. The price tag for the Republican proposal is a jaw-dropping $4.2 trillion. Working Americans would have to pick up the tab left unpaid by upper-income households. According to the Center for Tax Justice analysis, even though RyanNoCare features large aggregate tax cuts, ninety percent of Americans would actually pay higher taxes. It cuts middle class benefits and raises middle class taxes in order to cut taxes on the rich.

[poindexterwitkowsky]

~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!

[GOPkicksbutt]

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 John Boehner 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!

[Neosaigo]

@GOPkicksbutt Stop copy and paste the same response on each videos. You sound either like a broken record with wrong facts or someone who is paid to spread these crap on youtube.

[padude64]

You people had better wake up! These republicans are extremely vile and dangerous!

[padude64]

On right wing extremist talk radio they will cut you off if you do not support their views! This is an eye opener! The republican party wants to rid of the freedom of speech!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[conchf]

Teabagger aholes. Pushing so far to the right they have no problem STEALING my Medicare that I and my spouse worked and paid into all our lives. Insurance companies' useful idiots they are, not to mention selfish as the day is long.

[conchf]

This has been the GOP plan all along, to cut Medicare & Soc.Sec.. We had 8 years of massive spending during the bush years while they were handing out trillions in tax cuts. The deficits don't matter crowd are responsible for the MAJORITY of this country's debt. They don't pay their bills, kick the can down the road, blame the next guy and start the battle cry "to end Medicare". Look up starve the beast. The small bus. he speaks of aren't small at all, they are big corp. under the guise of s.b

[TheKmbt]

Ryan's plan would give billions more to the insurance companies via vouchers. And where does the money for those vouchers come from? You and me, that's who!

Can you say CORPORATE WELFARE??? This nigger (Ryan) should know better! F U Ryan and the rest of your corporate slave (GOP) buddies!

[MrBigEnchilada]

this should be on tv..........

[GOPkicksbutt]

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 John Boehner 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!

[Teremei]

@GOPkicksbutt I was about to scream at your stupidity until I read all of your post. lol. It's exactly true.

[Fingersrdrs]

President Obama will win in a landslide in 2012, the Democrats will win back congress and the republicans will be kicked to the curb.. We remember it was them that tanked our economy...

[DaShonuff]

Hehe talk about "tea bagging." hahahaaaa fucking republicans.

[Chilililabombwe]

Do Americans understand that Canada's corporate taxes are down to Chinese levels? Maybe they should be called business tax instead. Small companies in Canada are doing business in China and Vietan, rather than the US with the law and the unions. Do they understand where the growth is? Do they understand that there is a shift to Asia? America is not attractive for Canadian business with your litigation. Canadian businesses have been bankrupted by American law suits.

[cstrosser]

Corporate tax rates need to be restructured so that companies like GE pay their fair share of taxes.

[Ericwvb2]

The 35% corporate tax rate is a LIE. Currently corporations pay around 12% of the profits in corporate tax. Would it be a good idea to lower it to 25% and then get rid of the all the tax loopholes that result in the 12% rate? Sure, but you can be absolutely sure lobbyists will make sure those loopholes aren't going anywhere, and Ryan knows this. That's why he's a LIAR. Also, many of the biggest corporations are paying NO CORPORATE TAX AT ALL. Example: GE which actually got a refund.

[gamble180]

@Ericwvb2 But isn't that exactly what Rep Ryan was talking about? The mom and pop business can't afford the kind of accountants that hide GE's money. As far as the lobbyists for GE....maybe you should ask yourself who they're lobbying, because President Obama is awfully good friends with GE CEO Jeff Immelt.

[MrTohuskey]

Hey look everyone!!! another ThinkProgress fail !!

[Mephazel]

Paul Ryan is Peter Keating.

(Fountainhead)

[richie5393]

Now these tea baggers are getting a taste of their own medicine at THEIR town hall meetings

[smokin4dubs]

Thanks to paul ryan the gop will be doomed in 2012...thanks a lot schmuck

[HenhousetheRed]

@smokin4dubs The GOP was doomed at the birth of the tea party.

[dewdropinn17]

At least the gentleman was only screaming. Paul Ryan is doing something worse, LYING!

[dewdropinn17]

What a douche!

[kingbiscuit28]

"Do it First!!"

I couldn't agree more.

[PumaOPumaOPumaO]

LIAR

[skygrl22]

The same older voters that screamed and ragged at last years town halls are now turning on the congressmen they voted into office. What did they expect by voting in someone that makes his staff read Atlas Shrugged? They got exactly what they wanted.

[AnonPhenom]

Assassinate Paul Ryan.

[Beeht]

@AnonPhenom That's a bit much. :)

[viskarenvisla]

Who the hell does this guy think he is? Those people are his employers! He can't handle talking to a room full of seniors? How would ever handle coming to, say, Madison, and talking to the students he's so gleefully fucking over? The man was born a cunt, he was a cunt when his father died and he got the SS, he's a cunt now that he's leader of the house, and I hope to God that somehow this cunt loses EVERYTHING, so he can look at the mirror and see that he is, nothing more, than a cunt.

[TheMasterTate]

He is so full of bullshit. Now he has police dragging women out of his town hall in hand cuffs?  Where is this "liberal media" I keep hearing about? I haven't seen this on the news at all.

[Hdtexan]

WHAT A DOUCHENOZZLE

[ExChristian999]

People will have to crazy things like tea baggers for getting the attention of main steam media, because they only show it when crazy things happen. do it now other wise they are going to shove it .

[nydad1]

@trublue ask your grandma and grandpa was S.S or Medicare or Medicaid is a ponzi. Doesn't matter now, that the so called "Right" showed it's true colors they don't have a chance in 2012 we will get the house back keep the senate and PRESIDENT OBAMA will be re-elected lol thanks to your boy Paul Ryan. So do me a favor and keep pushing ur crazy agenda your not the only one waiting for 2012 ha ha ha

[trublu97]

@nydad1 I guess you don't understand the standard definition of "Ponzi scheme". The first in get paid first while the last in get the bag of IOU's. And lookie here, all those IOU's are gone and the number of jobs are dropping. Now we get the scheme part.

Where are all the jobs? Well, Utube Perot/Gore NAFTA sport. You buddy Gore was looking out for the little guy! Obama! Who is that? You mean Barry Sorento, taking up where Bush left off? Glad he got us out of iraq.

[nydad1]

Why isn't Fox " face ass " News covering this. Where is Sean "square head" hannity? When the tea party was yelling, screaming, gun carrying, keep your government hands off my Medicare. It was all over fox news during the health care debate. One question to the tea party. You voted them in, in 2010 for jobs jobs jobs remember? How does it feel that the party you put in charge is actually pulling the plug on your grand children by getting rid of Medicare and medicaid and probably social security?

[trublu97]

@nydad1 How does it feel to have the party "I" put in charge put an end to the ponzi scheme SS and Medicare?

I feel it is a start. Lot of work left.

[trublu97]

What a bunch of cry babies looking for government handouts. Pathetic. Yeah, tax the hardest working, most productive part of society, give it to the stupid-ment so they can waste it or give it to their euro banksters.

You chain smoking, lottery playing, beer guzzling, fatt ass losers think increasing the taxes on the "rich" is going to bail you out best think again. The gov could give you a million dollars and you all would be broke in a year.

[tacomang]

YEAH! TRICKLE- DOWN ECONOMICS! REAGANOMICS IS THE WAY TO GO

[utubesucks4069]

Waa- don't speak up at a town hall but its OK for republicans to bring guns and lie. What a bunch of hypocrites and spine less cowards. I say vote to take away the poors medicare, see you in 2012 idiots.

[exsinor]

How do you lower Corporate Income Tax that is $0 on several billion dollars net profit?

[edgwaterprog]

@exsinor Good point

[trublu97]

@exsinorHe is talking about the small business owners. Corporations will never pay taxes. They write the bloody tax code with backdoor outs. Corporations want more taxes so the small business owners will be less competitive as they will feel the full brunt of the tax increase.I see that 4 year vocational training you took is working wonders. Quit looking for others to pay your way.

No one, no class of people owe you jack shit.

[exsinor]

@trublu97 Make no mistake, Rep. Ryan is talking about big corporations. The small business he wants to help are those who are "small business" in name only. They qualify because they are sole proprietary, but make millions in net profit annually, such as hedge fund operators, or even the Koch Brothers. By the way, a sucessful business career did not come from vocational training, nor did the tax rates of the 70's, 80''s and 90's keep me from building an excellent self-funded retirement.

[trublu97]

@exsinor If you think you can tax big corporations and they will just pay up...may I introduce you to detroit? That has worked swimmingly for them. Get your $1 house! Big money can, and will, go anywhere it wants. It is a world market.

The tax rates of the 70's-90's had so many write offs (mostly gone) the headline rate was in name only. Plus, with 60% of the world taken off the free market by communism it was a little different competitive landscape.

This is painfully simple.

[exsinor]

@trublu97 What is "painfully simple" is that the heads of big corporations, and the wealthy that control them, feel they have a guaranteed right to become wealthier no matter what it does to the country.

[exsinor]

@trublu97 The "Jack Shit" you speak of, is what is spewing from your and the "right wingers" mouths.

[JimmysCrackhorn]

It's only OK to scream when you're a Tea Bagger rough-shodding Democrats.

[frostiblack]

This is delicious.

A comment overheard: "Yeah, it's amazing how Republicans (and, of course, Fox News) went out of their way to say how great it was to see real Amurricans coming out for the townhall meetings last summer over health care reform. Now that the shoe's on the other foot, and Paul Ryan has to defend his CouponCare program, he all of a sudden thinks how awful and impolite everyone is being that they don't agree with him."

[rumpole33]

so basically the repugs' plan is to force the lower/middle income classes to sacrifice first before even thinking about going after the wealthy & big corp.s.

like the town hall attendees said go after the wealthy guys & big corp.s first instead of coming to gun us down first.

[sapier]

Why don't they actually state what loopholes they want to close and start passing those bills even 1 at a time BEFORE giving them more tax breaks. oh right because they aren't going to close anything.

[azothdaco]

THESE GUYS CARE LESS ABOUT THE WORKING MIDDLE CLASS!!!!!!

[missles518]

@azothdaco Yep, My theory is: Most people who want the Big, Walmart Corporations to be taxed big, are people who are Jealous, and want more money from Welfare and Big Government Programs.

[conchf]

@missles518 Gop the biggest freeloaders for all and the MAJORITY of Americans get it. Cons love taking our tax money and handing it over to their Welfare cronies. CON Governors are putting Big Government laws on the books for the little people. Small government for them and their cronies so they can do as they please. When the tbag crowd was screeming "death panels!" and "their coming to take your freedoms and rights away!" They were talking about THEMSELVES

[GypsyMofakka]

Did that Republican Ryan ask someone to leave a public townhall meeting? Pathetic.

[1234uz]

The Republican Ryan Budget is nothing more than an attempt to give away Our Tax Dollars to the Republicans Corporate Masters like the Insurance Cos - the effect of his Medicare Privatization would hand over $30 Trillion of Our MONEY in the Future to Insurance Cos that would allegedly be writing the Policies for His New Brand of Medicare. Those of you who are 55 or under would be Thrown to the wolves and left to Die under the Republican Budget that ALL but 4 of them voted for in the House !

[yes4me]

What a fucking politician lie.

But the other issue is why the majority of American voters are stupid enough to have voted for all these assholes who give more tax cut to the rich, allow more tax loophole, allow open guns in park, defunct NPR, keep talking about birther/Nazi/communist/sociali­st Obama, talk about throwing rocks at democrat offices, use violent rhetoric to a point a democrat got shot in the head, while the rest of American just sit there and don't give a damn but their damn TV set.

[hollywoodt00]

"Can you hear me now?"  Probably not.

[dfrutled]

I dislike Ryan's plan but increasing tariffs is not the way to go. Hoover tried it in 1930 and it backfired and sunk us deeper into the depression because other countries just increased their tariffs and it just ended up causing our consumers to pay for for their goods, thus making them even poorer.

Ryan is lying about the corporate tax rate. google "Big corporations: We don't pay no stinking taxes."

[yes4me]

@dfrutled So you prefer taxing the middle and poor classes instead of the corporation? Cause that's pretty much where all the money can be found. The rest is just about hacking a few programs here and there but it doesn't bring any revenue.

[dfrutled]

@yes4me Not at all. Tariff is not the same as a corporate tax. I was not referring to corporate taxes, I was just referring to the guy in the video at the start when he says we should increase tariffs. In fact, I think Corporations get too many breaks and the corporate tax rate has little effect on outsourcing jobs.

Google and read this short article: "Big corporations: We don't pay no stinking taxes."

[rumpole33]

@dfrutled: the higher tariffs on exported american goods while we keep lower tariffs on those other countries' goods has backfired on us and sunk us deepter into this economic catastrophe. we didnt even do what the other countries did, as you say, way back when by increasing our own tariffs to match the other countries' rates. so it ended up causing the other countries' manufacturing base to grow while we were made even poorer.

[PestControl02]

glad to see concerned citizens holding their elected representatives accountable for a change. No fan of ryan but I admire his courage, at least he's got the balls to stand there and face the music. maybe there is a glimmer of hope left.

really though, nothing can be fixed until the money system changes. fractional reserve banking needs to be replaced.

[donnyforte2]

Is mainstream news even covering these events? They were all over the town halls with screaming people on healthcare, but I've hardly seen any coverage of it.

[cisseshairdresser]

@donnyforte2

Thats the problem for the left in the US, the Right-Wing completely owns your Media (except MSNBC). This would of been all over the UK media if something like this happened.

[reyesmatthew]

@donnyforte2 The internet is an unbiased equalizer. We really need to protect its open nature.

[diginando]

@donnyforte2 They are starting now.

[rickbar123]

@donnyforte2 CHINA MAKES AMERICAN COMPANYS PAY A 50% PARTNER SHIP FEE TO MANUFACTURE AND DO BUSINESS IN CHINA.

IT IS NOT CALLED A TAX, IT IS CALLED A PARTNERSHIP FEE.

RYAN IS BULLSHIT KING. IF AMERICAN COMPANYS MANUFACTURING IN CHINA CAN PAY 50% OF PROFITS TO THE CHINESE GOV THEN THEY CAN PAY THEIR SHARE HERE.

[ForbesFortune]

@donnyforte2 If you watch MSNBC, you'll see it almost 24hrs a day.

[donnyforte2]

@ForbesFortune I just checked their channel..... nothing there on that. *shrugs*

[ForbesFortune]

@donnyforte2 Just wait for the Rachel Maddow show, Lawrence O'Donnell or The Ed show. They have it on every night.

[donnyforte2]

@ForbesFortune I've heard a lot on the birther bs and crap on RIck Snyder---- not so much on this. I'm not a particularly a news junkie, but the overall coverage is nothing like it was under the healthcare debate.

[missles518]

@donnyforte2 The mainstream media wants to show all the Republican's being bashed and called shit heads at meetings and so on.

Remember when Shelia Jackson Lee answered a phone call while a conservative was asking her a question about healthcare, Well, FOX News was the only channel that actually interviewed Congresswoman Lee about that call and why she answered it. Check out On the Record with Greta Van Sustran

[wallstreetatheist]

@donnyforte2 There was like one person shouting for 5 seconds in an uneducated town of lower-middle class people; it's perfectly reasonable that this news story didn't hit a major news network...

[donnyforte2]

@wallstreetatheist Same for the health care debates. One or two old people yelling = 24/7 coverage of the town hall meetings. Don't you love hypocrisy?
