The road to prosperity explained

"And worst of all, this is a vision that says even though Americans can’t afford to invest in education at current levels, or clean energy, even though we can’t afford to maintain our commitment on Medicare and Medicaid, we can somehow afford more than $1 trillion in new tax breaks for the wealthy. Think about that.

In the last decade, the average income of the bottom 90 percent of all working Americans actually declined. Meanwhile, the top 1 percent saw their income rise by an average of more than a quarter of a million dollars each. That’s who needs to pay less taxes?

They want to give people like me a $200,000 tax cut that’s paid for by asking 33 seniors each to pay $6,000 more in health costs. That’s not right. And it’s not going to happen as long as I’m President.

This, of course, deeply upset Rep. Ryan"

VOR, I'm curious if you have actually read Senator Ryan's proposal.

As a Branded Lib by ya'll, you know I haven't read any of it. I've heard enough about it to know it is nothing more than unrealistic tea bag posturing and upward wealth re distribution. Nothing more than a supply side trickle down ponzi scheme.

Well, that is the very definition of ignorance then. Sad.

Willy don't feel sad for me. It's my choice to not buy in to more of the same. I can gist the proposal and know it is more of the same.

I want to know how VOR wants to deal with our debt after watching this video that puts it in perspective...
