    Paul Ryan is an expert on the economy like the Rump is an expert on the climate.

    Leave the economy to economists as they should leave science to the scientists!

    The One Factor Study. A true classic of junk science.

    Let’s add another example: 8 years of Clinton: taxes went up, the economy experienced continued growth, and a budget surplus was established (the only one in my life time).

    The amazing thing is that Tiny and the regressives actually believe the Laugher Curve.

    Paul Ryan is simply an intellectual and ethical fraud. But, hey, the federal budget isn’t of any interest to Tiny. His wall is of central concern because it involves Tiny’s tiny. Pelosi nailed that one.

    Ratso Ryan is another rodent deserting the sinking Ship of State, but we won’t forget the damage he’s done in his ineffective term as House Speaker.

    We tried it under Coolidge and Hoover; we tried it under Reagan; we tried it under Bush Jr. Each time, it crashed the economy. So hey, let’s try it again.

    Scientific Fact: Did you know that; Paul Ryan idolizes Ayn Rand and her ideas seriously. Did you know that; Ayn Rand, based on her writings, personal diary, and those that knew her (particularly members of her cult) is considered by those in the psychiatric profession to have been a psychopath. Knowing that scientific fact, do you think anyone that believes that the ideas of a psychopath should be emulated should be in a position of responsibility?

    Lyin’ Ryan seems to be determined to DESTROY the country before he is bounced out of the house, and an INTELLIGENT SPEAKER takes over in January!

    Ryan isn’t a doctor, he just plays one on TV. And on the floor of the House…….Does Ryan remind anybody else of Jonah on “Veep”?

    We need to go back to FDR and 90% income taxes, asset taxes, luxury taxes, and sales taxes. Loop holes were created so people would fund growth instead of personal assets.

    Why does Dr. Ryan look so much like Robert Mueller?

    Of course, if Dr. Ryan had used the “results” of his “experiment” to conclude that tax increases for the wealthy were the way to go, that would be an equally unscientific conclusion.
