The only way to end poverty is for poor people to stop having children.
I gave up on Ryan. He’s a statist.
Not reading it. Does it include, as does his previous plan, taking money from contractually agreed-to veterans’ widows funds?

small government (government creates poverty) and free enterprise in the wealth-producing free market economy.
And they fixed immigration back in the 80s.
Yet all these systems are "broken".
Funny how that works.
After reading only three paragraphs I quit. No matter how they word it IF the FED is involved it means the States are subservient to that they created to manage the Union. There’s no way Ryan, or any of them get conservatism. They just don’t get it YET they claim to wear the badge proudly.
NO it’s not a badge to wear. It’s an understanding of the Constitution, our history under the leadership of that Constitution, and a will to comply with that Constitution.
How 'bout this: Stop taxing the money out of the states. Stop running the money thru DC to have half or more of it squandered in graft. Leave the money with the people who earned it. Howzat?
Stop subsidizing poor people and you will reduce poverty greatly.
Poverty is the negation of wealth. any attempt to destroy or diminish the negative is a total waste of energy and resources. Can’ t be done. All it can do is increase the experience of poverty.
Stop the war against poverty. And stop the war against wealth and those who produce it.
Dumber than Patty Murray is incapable of any legislation.
Freedom + small government + low taxes = prosperity - that is the winning formula to get the most of people out of poverty. As long as we continue to import tons of unskilled labor into the country, legal or otherwise, it makes it harder for the poor to free themselves from economic bondage. If you could slow the flood of illegals, reduce taxes and shrink government, the pool of poor folks will shrink.
We have made the poor too comfortable in their poverty. When it becomes more desirable to work rather than collect welfare checks, then we will start winning the “war on poverty”.
Benign neglect. Choices have consequences and bad choices must be punished.
Give everyone a $10,000 tax credit, set a single 15% flat-tax, and abolish all federal government welfare programs.
