SARAH PALIN: PAUL RYAN BUDGET 'A JOKE'
Breibart Big Government ^ | April 1 | Tony. Lee

Posted on 04/01/2014 6:39:43 PM PDT by Hojczyk

Are you kidding? You’d think one who is representing the mighty Badgers, who made it to the Final Four based on sacrificial work ethic and discipline that obviously pays off in the end, he who represents the great state of Wisconsin that hosts this underdog celebrated college basketball team, would understand that future success depends on hard work and sacrifices. The latest Ryan (R, Wisconsin) Budget is not an April Fool’s joke. Palin said that the budget that was presented, though,"really IS a joke because it is STILL not seeing the problem."

"It STILL is not proposing reining in wasteful government overspending TODAY, instead of speculating years out that some future Congress and White House may possibly, hopefully, eh-who-knows, take responsibility for today’s budgetary selfishness and shortsightedness to do so," she continued. "THIS is the definition of insanity. Do we still not understand how dangerous it is to allow government to grow unchecked as we shackle ourselves with massive debt – a good portion of which is held by foreign nations who don’t necessarily like us?"

"If we can’t balance the budget today, what on earth makes us think it will happen at some future date?" she wrote. "The solution is staring us in the face. We need to rein in spending today, and don’t tell me there is nothing to cut when we know every omnibus bill is loaded with pork and kickbacks."

Palin urged her supporters to read the Tea Party leaders quoted in the Breitbart News article she linked that gave her "the same reaction that my daughter just caused when she punked me with a very unfunny April Fool’s Day announcement:"

As my Dad would say after these April Fool’s announcements, “This would kill a lesser man.” This out-of-control debt is killing our economic future.

That man (Ryan) sure knows how to write a budget resolution,

I am still shocked that Romney didnt win with him on the ticket.

Paul Ryan is finished politically. He was for AMNESTY. ,

He still is 100% for Amnesty. I took a lot of heat when I railed against him after Romney picked him. As I said then, Ryan who voted for TARP, No Child Left Behind, ethanol subsidies, Medicare Part-D cannot be considered a Conservative.

He was for tax increases and more spending. HE IS A PHONY.

Ryan is a hard-core Statist.

Palin rocks!! She is the future. !!

Yes, I hope she or Ted Cruz is our nominee in 2016. She truly gets it.

My Own Final Four Bracket For America’s Future

Holy Moly! Are you kidding?

Agreed, there is no one on the horizon like her.
Of course I’ll take Ted Cruz too.

I continue to wake people up from their endless slumber and educate them regarding this dynamic woman.

I hate to pee in everybody’s cornflakes, but I’m going to anyway. SP is just engaging in demogogery at its worst. You can cut all the waste and fraud in the world and you will still not balance the budget. The problem is entitlements. They will soon suck up every dollar the government spends. But nobody, Left or Right, Sarah Palin included will do anything about it. I know someone will say, “I paid into Social Security, and I deserve every dime I get.” Well true if you drop dead before 70, but those living on for the next 15-20 years will be collecting someone else’s money. The truth hurts, but the truth is the truth. We are going bankrupt from entitlements, and there is no one willing to stop it, Sarah Palin included. Like a sign I saw at a Tea Party rally, “Cut Government Spending, Hands Off My Social Security.”

Everybody leaves me cold today because nobody, Ted Cruz included, is proposing the real answer. It is what Reagan did to some extent, take off the green eye shade, and create economic growth. Make this country the end all and be all of business. Reward economic activity, make the business climate second to none in the world. Create wealth like it is going out of style. You run on unprecedented prosperity and I believe you got a winner. Stop with the ticky-tacky budget crap, it gets us nowhere fast. Economic growth solves many problems. In the 90’s, the budget was balanced on sure luck. It was nothing the politicians did, Slick and Newt can take all the credit they want, but they did little. The internet boom did it. All that wealth created in cyberspace balanced the budget. So lets stop our stupid fetish on the budget, and plant our flag on creating the conditions for people to prosper once again. Bring back the go go days of the 80’s when college grads were getting high salaries a week after graduation.

Please tell me when/where Sarah Palin has said she is NOT for doing anything about entitlements.

Google "Sarah Palin cutting entitlements" and you'll see that she is, and has been, for entitlement reforms.

Hint: Don't pee in the cornflakes before you know the facts.

I am commenting on the article, and in that article nothing was mentioned in regards to entitlements. If you think she would do anything about entitlements, or anybody currently holding office, I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you. Grow up and stop the hero worship. She is a politician and a human, and both are full of s**t. I distrust everybody, including her, you, and the guy down the street. It is just the way I am. Don’t take it personally. All politicians are out for themselves, including Sarah Palin. I would still vote for her over any Democrat and many Republicans, but I still do not trust her, or any politician .

The problem with your idea is that it fails to recognize two reasons why you cannot re-create the growth of the 80’s or 90’s:

1. 65 to 70% of the US GDP stems from consumer spending. Consumer consumption isn’t going to resume the levels of the 80’s and 90’s because there is a demographic shift happening as the Boomers age and pare down and shift their consumer spending as they age.

This demographic shift will also worsen the entitlement spending problems. Entitlement expenditures are on the cusp of exploding upwards.

2. In the 80’s and 90’s, we didn’t have the stupidity of “free trade” coupled with a huge competitor in the form of the PRC. Now we have both the stupidity of “free trade” (which isn’t free - it’s mostly of one-way benefit for our trading partners) with a People’s Republic of China whom we’ve made rich with our trade deficits and intellectual property.

Entitlements need to be cut. Everything needs to be put on the chopping block, including defense spending. We, as a nation, will have no other choice but to become isolationist in pursuit of smaller defense expenditures. We’re going to have to raise the Social Security retirement age(s) - into the low 70’s at least, and pretty quickly.
