Republican economic policies are also indefensible. The GOP constantly claims its opponents are engaged in "class warfare," but this is an exercise in projection. In Republican proposals, the wealthy win, and the rest of us lose- one only has to look at Rep. Paul Ryan's budget to see that.

Government spending is up to 24% of GDP. The "rich" pay 70% + of all taxes. The GOP wants to bring spending back to its post WWII level of 18% and not cause the "rich" to pay 100% of all taxes, as they would under Obama's skewed tax plans. Ryan's budget doesn't even back out all of Obama's spending for 10 years. If this moron thinks that Ryan's budget is "extreme," he's too stupid to vote.

I think you mean 70% of Federal income taxes.
