Paul Ryan Is No Fiscal Conservative

Paul Ryan now taking some shots from the moron flank, story here at Mediaite.

Ryan’s Medicare reforms don’t take effect for a decade, which means the program will start being reformed after a record number of people have retired, and a record low number of people are paying into it. 

Given the dire warnings from Moody’s and the Congressional Budget Office about America’s financial future, Ryan’s plans are clearly inadequate to the challenge of preventing a national fiscal crisis.

Ryan has a long record of supporting government-expanding policies. Ross addressed some of these, burying them late in his piece. 

“There are the votes bailing out banks and the auto industry and for George W. Bush-era legislation such as the prescription drug program that came well before the rise of the tea party,” he wrote. 

In addition to these votes, Ryan stood behind No Child Left Behind, the 2008 stimulus, an extension of unemployment benefits, and hundreds of billions of dollars for two badly-run wars. Ryan’s reputation of fiscal conservatism also suffered damage last year when he said on CBS’ Face the Nation that “we do not have a debt crisis right now but we see it coming.

This type of criticism will continue for any politician who tries to compromise with these libertarian morons.

We need not compromise but rather confrontation with what compels these disgraced second rate humans.
