kallend 2,182 #1 September 30, 2012 GOP vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan declined Sunday to give specifics of the campaign’s tax plan, saying “it would take me too long.” The Democrats have repeatedly hammered Ryan and Mitt Romney for failing to detail how they would finance a promised 20% tax cut. On “Fox News Sunday,” host Chris Wallace pressed Ryan to do the arithmetic, noting that President Obama says it would cost $5 trillion over a decade. Ryan said that figure was off-base but refused to offer one of his own. “I don’t have time,” the Wisconsin congressman said. “It would take me too long to go through all the math.” Read more: www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/paul-ryan-long-explain-math-tax-plan-article-1.1171433#ixzz27xvemqTl...

Look at the bipartisan CBO conclusions. Obama's numbers make sense. The GOP (neither Ryan nor Romney) doesn't make sense even in the MOST favorable conditions./ Cheers!

CBO on the Ryan Plan: http://www.cbo.gov/sites/default/files/cbofiles/ftpdocs/121xx/doc12128/04-05-ryan_letter.pdf Oh and if you want to compare how U.S is faring in comparison to other Financial-crises (you seem pretty willing to do everything to not understand what happened in 2007-2008) http://oregoneconomicanalysis.files.wordpress.com/2012/09/rr_employment.jpg Also look up the U.K and how Osborne tackled their own depression (errily similar to what Romney is proposing)... hint: doing not so good my friend Cheers!

Gravitymaster 0 #8 September 30, 2012 Nice dodge. Did you forget about the bullshit of cutting the deficit in half and then increasing it by $6 trillion? Did you forget about the bullshit number on keeping the unemployment rate below 6% if only he could have another $1 billion? And now you expect that if we just give him 4 more years, everything will be great? I call Bullshit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And do you not understand the 3 trillion $ output gap that was left out in the aftermath of the Lehman Brother collapse? You're always so ... angered by this. You almost seem to take it personally. I love reading financial statements, budget plans and the whatnot. But if we blindly take the two budget proposals, the GOP plan simply just doesn't work, almost imaginary. I think what could help is for people to look back at what the media was saying back in the early 1930s. They were saying quite eerily the same thing that we are today. Fear of inflation, fear of debt, fear of decline..... And with all this concerns, there was the lack of doing anything at all- needlessly prolonging America's Great Depression. Cheers!

The Ryan plan of cutting taxes while increasing military spending will not do good things for either. To deny this is to live in Alice's Wonderland.
