I also afford charity to those less fortunate, something that Paul Ryan doesn't think is necessary. Picking up your day labor in front of Home Depot is not charity. |

We actually have no way to tell what might happen to Medicare, Medicaid or Social Security or when if the ultra conservatives like Ryan are put in charge. -- I'm a liberal because the militant fundamentalist ignorant science-denying religious xenophobic corporate oligarchy of modern Republican conservatism just doesn't work for me or my country. |

The Republican way seems to be to first **** over those who need the health services and cut back even more on what remains of our social safety net *and* hand over even bigger tax cuts to the wealthy. Part of Ryan's budget plans, for example, would lower the tax rate of people like Romney to nearly zero. Sorry, there's no reason to trust or even consider plans from extremists like Ryan. BTW, is it true that in 14 years in congress, he's gotten two bills passed and one was to rename a post office? -- I'm a liberal because the militant fundamentalist ignorant science-denying religious xenophobic corporate oligarchy of modern Republican conservatism just doesn't work for me or my country. |

Medicare as a program is what, 47 years old ... yet has been modified many times. But no modification would leave people out in the cold as much as Ryan's would. Vouchers would undoubtedly come up short and with medical care costing what it does, many seniors would be forced into bankruptcy while Ryan give "job creators" even bigger tax breaks. Everyone understands the Republican's love of wealth and most understand trickle down hasn't and won't work. Supply side economics is bull****. Both Romney and Ryan come from privileged upbringings, as is amply evident in their both having 7.1 channel surround sound tin ears. If the Dems have a clue, they'll position them as tools of the rich, with little understanding or regard for people who didn't hit the sperm/egg jackpot. |

He's co-authored two bills. One to name a PO after Les Aspin and the other to control tax on arrows, as in bow and arrow. He's a rich boy from a wealthy family who never knew a challenge. Looks like he's been sitting with his thumb up his ass since he got to congress. That is until he came up with his cockeyed budget ideas. |
