Good article. I like Ryan, his plan is a great improvement over anything the older heads in congress are proposing, but Palin is right.
Ryan is a good guy, but I don’t think we can solve this problem without actually devolving entire departments back to the states or even eliminating them entirely. Energy, Education, Agriculture, these should definitely be on the table. I’d like to find the politician who is willing to look at Interior too. These all bring the government into control of areas where they have no business.
Ryan’s plan is a good one for what it is, which is to slowly ramp down the debt. But it leaves aside the assumptions for another day that have infected this government over the last century and guarantee that we will be right back here next year and the year after. As long as we continue to expect the same things from the federal government we will continue to get the same outcomes.
Thanks, and I agree I think Palin is attempting to change the entire focus of converation not just the $ size of the discussion..
