Are you serious? You apparently have zero clue about economics if you believe this. The privatization of medicare and Social security would create 2 programs that would not work. you would take extremely efficient programs so billions could be siphoned off by a few an d leave Americans holding the bag of empty promises.
neither program are entitlement programs , they are bought and paid for and are well funded with easy solutions to increase funding.
Paul Ryan is an idiot and his ideas are bad for America.
btw- I do have a degree in Economics as well as Business and others.
He is positively BRILLIANT on economic and budgetary issues. Please, get a clue.
He's as brilliant as a turd. You are the one who badly needs to get a clue.
His budgets are pie in the sky pure unadulterated BS.
He even falsefies data to make the totally unacceptable idiocy look like just plain stupidity.
You tell me what is in anyway intellegent about this!!!!
His proposed budget would.
Devastate food inspections and safety.
Gut all housing assistence.
Severely cut education.
Cut all infrastructure rehab.
That is just the tip of the cutting this idiot proposes.
What do you suppose the reason for this complete stupidity is?
MASSIVE TAX CUTS FOR THE HIGHET EARNERS IN THE COUNTRY.
THIS JERK IS LIKE A GW BUSH ON STERIODS.
Now, the results of Bush's disasterous financial management was a near distruction of the economy with the Bush tax cuts. These RWNJs like Ryan can't learn anything from experience EVER. Reality does not exist in their little make believe world. He would be far better off writing a budget for Mexico because his ideas are the same as all Mexican politicians. We will give as much of the resources of the nation to the smallest number of people possible without sparking a revolution. We will give as little as possible of the resources of the nation to the majority of the people without sparking a revolution.
I don't think Ryan is a bad person bent to ruin the world. Just extremely misguided when it comes to economics.

New Republic literary editor questions Paul Ryan's intelligence
He takes particular issue with Ryan's youthful fondness for Ayn Rand, whose novels espouse a naked selfishness, writing:
"One of the writers he got his hands on was Ayn Rand, and he fell under her foul spell. Her novels are certainly fit for adolescents; and ideology may be regarded as the intellectual equivalent of arrested adolescence. 'Atlas Shrugged' might have been a sin of youth, like 'Siddhartha' and 'Thus Spake Zarathustra,' except that Ryan never repented the sin. He learned from Rand that the road to morality led through economics...The market was an allegory for life.
Also, he tries to puncture the notion that Ryan is a deep thinker, all but calling him a blowhard:
"Then there is the matter of Ryan’s intellectualism. His promoters have made much of it...[But] a close look at Ryan’s writings, however, shows an intellectual style that is amateurish and parochial. His thought is just a package. The distinction between an analysis and a manifesto is lost on him.
And then he pretty much accuses him of cribbing from Wikipedia...

He is nothing more than a Randian AZZHAT.
Congressman Ryan is Brilliant, positively brilliant, despite the pissant-protestations from the LWNJs.

Geez, are 'wingers always so gullible and easily impressed? It's like differences in politics are one thing, but why is it that everyone they think is ''smart'' always sounds like that description, ''a stupid person's idea what an intelligent person is like''?!

As the facts state, Congressman Ryan is Brilliant. Your hatred of what is right and just, shades and poisons your view.
I question Obama's emotional intelligence and mental intelligence.
He is a egomaniac. They do not possess intelligence in any form. They're self-absorbed.
Paul Ryan has made more judgment calls than most people in congress, and has shown more intelligence both emotionally (in that he's had the courage to take a stand to help America get back on track in the way he knows how), and mentally, in that he had the mental intelligence to come up with a budget, which is more than Obama has had the courage to do.
Liberals have to try so hard to come up with "freudian slips" that the other side supposedly makes because they are actually deeply embarrassed that their own party can't come up with anything close to a budget, much less something that does a lick of good for the American economy.
