The path to prosperity (episode 2): saving medicare, visualized

Full script can be found at: budget.house.gov House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan: "We can no longer let politicians in Washington deny the danger to Medicare -- the danger is all too real, and the health of our nation's seniors is far too important. We have to save Medicare to avoid disruptions in benefits for current seniors, and to strengthen the program for future generations. House Republicans have put forward a plan to do just that. Democratic leaders in Congress have failed to produce a plan -- it has been 755 days since Senate Democrats even passed a budget. Meanwhile, the President's plan would empower a panel of 15 unelected bureaucrats to cut Medicare for current seniors, while failing to save the program for future retirees. "This video lays out the clear choice our nation faces on Medicare: Will Medicare become a program in which a board of bureaucrats manages its bankruptcy by denying care to seniors? Or will leaders work together to save and strengthen Medicare by empowering seniors to choose health care plans that work best for them, with less support for the wealthy and more help for the poor and the sick? House Republicans have advanced solutions to save Medicare. Instead of working with us, the leaders of the Democratic Party have opted to play politics with the health security of America's seniors." -- To learn more about the House-passed Fiscal Year 2012 Budget -- The Path to Prosperity: budget.house.gov To learn more about the facts on the ...

House budget trailer: america deserves a better path

House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan of Wisconsin previews next week's FY2013 budget proposal. You know, I was here -- in Congress -- in 2008 when we had the economic crisis. It was a terrible time. Millions of people lost their jobs. Trillions of dollars of wealth: gone. That crisis caught us by surprise. Let me ask you a question: what if your President, your Senator and your Congressman knew it was coming? What if they knew when it was going to happen, why it was going to happen and more importantly, what if they knew what they needed to do to stop it from happening and they had the time to stop it? But they chose to do nothing about it, because it wasn't good politics? What would you think of that person? It would be immoral. This coming debt crisis is the most predictable crisis we've ever had in this country. And look what's happening. This is why we're acting. This is why we're leading. This is why we're proposing - and passing out of the House - a budget to fix this problem: so we can save our country for ourselves and our children's future. budget.house.gov http www Category: News & Politics Length: 00:00:59.250 Tags: .

Paul ryan reminds debbie wasserman-schultz what she's already done to medicare

House Budget Commitee Chairman Paul Ryan corrected Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz's incorrect speech on Medicare during House Floor debate of the Path to Prosperity Budget. DNC Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman-Schultz: As a member of Congress representing a large number seniors in south Florida, I can tell you that the House Republican Budget would be devastating for seniors and older Americans. This Republican path to poverty would pass like a tornado through America's nursing homes, where millions of Americans seniors receive long-term and end-of-life care. HBC Chairman Paul Ryan: The growth rate of Medicare under this budget is the same one the President proposes in his budget. Here's the difference: President Obama in his law -- the one being debated over in the Supreme Court -- says 15 unelected, unaccountable bureaucrats will be in charge of putting price controls and cuts to Medicare to accommodate that growth rate. Our plan puts 50 million seniors in charge of choosing what health care plan is best for them -- more for the poor, more for the sick, less for the wealthy, and it makes Medicare solvent. And here's the catch: we don't change the benefit for current seniors. This just applies to younger people - unlike the current law that the President passed -- that my friend voted for - 15 bureaucrats are in charge of putting price controls on current seniors' medical care which leads to denied care for them. So if we're talking about who's "saving and ... Category: News & Politics Length: 00:01:07.500 Tags: .

Paul ryan on meet the press: we need a clean break from the politics of the past

House Budget Committee Paul Ryan of Wisconsin joins NBC's Meet the Press to highlight The Path to Prosperity: budget.house.gov Ryan highlights the House Republicans' success in cleaning up the Democrats' budget mess for the current fiscal year, but underscored the need to "move from talking about saving billions of dollars to going on to saving trillions of dollars." Regarding the President's request to raise the debt ceiling, Ryan argued that you first need "real spending cuts and real spending controls, real caps on spending going forward so we can take pressure off the debt and get this country on the right fiscal path." Regarding too many politicians focused on the next election at the expense of the next generation, Ryan called for "a clean break from the politics of the past. Both parties do this to each other. Both parties use hyper rhetoric, both parties use all of this demagoguery. And what happens? We have political paralysis and we don't fix the country's problems, but we have a debt crisis staring us in the face and that's what's got to get fixed." On the futile effort to chase ever-higher spending with ever-higher taxes: "The problem with a bunch of tax increases -- the President just raised taxes $800 billion [in his health care law], he's calling for new $1.5 trillion in tax increases [in his budget] --you slow down economic growth. We want job creation and economic growth. We don't think the answer to prosperity is borrowing and spending more money. We got ... Category: Science & Technology Length: 00:10:07.500 Tags: .

Paul ryan: president's budget ensures government can't keep its promises

Bill Hemmer: Wisconsin Congressman Republican Paul Ryan and Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner. This all happened late yesterday afternoon. Here is a sample, listen and watch closely. [Budget Hearing clip] And it went on from there. Paul Ryan, Republican out of Wisconsin and Chairman of the House Budget Committee, is back with me this morning. Paul, it's good to see you. Good morning to you. Congressman Paul Ryan: Good to see you too, Bill. Bill Hemmer: I thought the phrase that stuck out the most was when you said that we are lying to people. Explain that. Congressman Paul Ryan: Our government is, according to the General Accountability Office, making $99.4 trillion dollars in promises to today's Americans that it has no way of paying for. We're making $37 trillion dollars in promises to people fir just Medicare alone that we have no way of paying for. What's happening in Europe is that a bunch of governments and politicians from all political parties who made all of these empty promises to voters and they have no way of paying for those promises. The point I'm trying to make, Bill, is we need to be straight with the country about our real fiscal problems.

Paul ryan and robert reich debate taxes, spending and the economy

Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan, Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee, and Former Labor Secretary Robert Reich talk taxes, spending, and the economy on CNBC's Kudlow Report. Paul Ryan: "Raising taxes is not good for economic growth. That raises the barrier and the hurdle to risk-taking, investment, innovation, entrepreneurship and job creation. I think that is bad tax policy and that is bad economic growth policy. "We have to get spending on the right trajectory. If want to have these kinds of investments in infrastructure and education, we have got to get a grip on entitlements because they're crowding everything out of the budget. I would argue that if we do real entitlement reform, which doesn't hurt people in and near retirement, but puts us on a better trajectory going forward, that is going to give us some breathing space in the credit markets, it is going to take pressure off of interest rates, and that is going to help in the economy right now."

Msnbc's morning joe: paul ryan on the budget and bipartisanship

With the US House of Representatives set to consider the Majoritys FY2010 Budget Conference Report this week, Congressman Paul Ryan (WI-01) joined the set of MSNBCs Morning Joe to discuss the budget reconciliation process, and the lack of collaboration in Congress. Ryan serves as Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee, and has been deeply critical of the Majoritys budget, which Ryan has argued: exploits our very serious economic crisis to rush through a sweeping, likely irreversible, expansion of the Federal Government. As Congressman Ryan recently made clear: It is not enough to simply criticize. We must also propose a better way forward. The budget House Republicans offered gives Americans a real choice. It curbs spending, creates jobs, and controls the debt.

Paul ryan: the president's budget is late...again.

House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan appeared a House Republican news conference on February 7th, 2012: "Yesterday the President's budget was due. We don't have it yet. It's coming late, again. The President likes to call his new plan, 'America Built to Last'; I would call it "America Drowning in Debt." "By all the press accounts we are getting early, it seems the President is doing little more than class envy and the status quo, which is the greatest threat to our health security, our retirement security, our national security, and our economic security. Unfortunately what we are getting from the President is not the kind of leadership we need to preempt a debt crisis and get our economy going. We are getting a political document yet again. "As Mr. Hensarling said, 'every year of this presidency is another year we are over a trillion dollars in debt.' A trillion dollar deficit added every year. You could get rid of all discretionary spending and we would still have a budget deficit. The President cannot run on his record, because it is dismal. The President is clearly not changing his tune or his policies, because he is determined to stick with the status quo. As a result, he has decided to wage this campaign of dividing Americans and pitting one against the other. That's not how you grow the economy, that's not hopeful, that's not aspirational. That unfortunately is America drowning in debt, and we are going to do things differently. "We are bringing budget process ... Category: News & Politics Length: 00:01:21 Tags: Press Conference .

Social security's chief actuary: 23% cut will hit seniors if we do nothing

House Budget Committee Chairman Paul Ryan held a hearing on February 28, 2012 with Stephen Goss and Richard Foster, the Chief Actuaries for the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, Social Security Administration. RYAN: I've heard people advance, here in Congress, that the [Social Security] Trust Fund is fine until 2036, and we don't have to do anything until then -- so why worry about it now? I want to get at the nature of that. Correct me if I'm wrong, but if we do that then we have an across-the-board cut of about 23% that occurs in benefits -- is that correct? GOSS: Exactly. RYAN: And does that hit everybody equally? Meaning, does a 23% cut hit a low-income worker just as much as it hits a high-income individual? GOSS: As we understand it -- our General Counsel at Social Security across several administrations -- has indicated that the law actually does not speak explicitly to this. The Commissioner standing at that time would simply have 77 cents available for every dollar of scheduled benefits, and would not be permitted to spend more that that -- we do not have borrowing authority. So a decision would have to be made about how would get the money. We could have an across-the-board 23% cut immediately, or a Commissioner could say, 'well we're not going to pay the March benefits in March -- we'll wait until April -- wait until more revenues come in to allow full payment a month late.' After a few months we would perhaps then have to start paying benefits two ... Category: News & Politics Length: 00:02:09.750 Tags: .

To learn more: prosperity.budget.house.gov Attacking Poverty by Expanding Opportunity Is the goal to treat the symptoms of poverty or to attack the root causes of poverty? We're advancing welfare reform that gets people onto lives of self-sufficiency, that's why we couple this with job training programs and work requirements. We think we ought to help get people out of the cycle of poverty. Unfortunately, the President's agenda creates more of a dependent culture, more people stuck in poverty because it denies the idea of upward mobility. This is a critical difference. We're working to repair the safety net and help people get back on their feet. Reforming Medicaid Medicaid is already going bankrupt. Medicaid is already a program that so many doctors won't even take anymore because of its federal rules, regulations and mandates. Let's block grant Medicaid back to the states. Allow states to customize this benefit to meet the particular needs of their populations. Yes, it will still grow under the reforms we're talking about, but we will free the states to experiment and customize this benefit to the needs of their population.

Paul ryan on washington's borrow and spend spree

Paul Ryan, Ranking Member of the House Budget Committee For more: house.gov On the lessons from Europe We are doubling down on this neo-Keynesian borrow and spend spree. It's not working. We've lost 3.6 million jobs since the last stimulus was passed and they want to do more of the same. Bailing out state governments is the next roll of the dice. We are copying European economic policies of the past and that is going to give us a European kind of debt crisis in the future if we don't change our policies. Yet the President is doubling down, giving us a big debt hangover. On whether there will be the votes in Congress for the President's demands for more spending The President got those same centrist Democrats to vote for a budget that doubles our debt in five years and triples our debt in ten years. He got those same centrist Democrats to vote for $1.8 trillion dollars in new spending and $670 billion in new taxes in this session of Congress. He has always gotten, along with Speaker Pelosi, the votes needed to engage in their continued spending spree. On Washington's failed economic doctrine What we have right now is a neo-Keynesian model being pushed, which means spend, spend, spend -- and they still have no problem with all of these tax increases. This economic doctrine conveniently fits a political ideology. This political agenda is built upon building government programs, building up spending -- and they use this economic doctrine to satisfy their political pent up ...

#1000days & no budget: what are senate democrats hiding?

We welcome the President to the House chamber tonight, where he will address the American people to assess the State of the Union. This presents another opportunity for the President to chart a new course. I hope the President takes this opportunity to stop offering empty rhetoric and broken promises, to stop pushing policies that have proven to make matters worse, and to stop dividing Americans for political gain. I hope the President takes this opportunity to start working with us to get America back on track. Yet, the Administration has -- time and again -- turned hope into disappointment. The President and his party's leaders continue to duck from the most pressing fiscal and economic challenges facing our nation. Exhibit A of this failure is the fact that today marks 1000 days without Senate Democrats passing a budget. Having failed to put forward a credible budget plan in 1000 days, the President's party is committing America to a future of debt, doubt and decline. Instead of dealing honestly with our biggest fiscal challenges and providing certainty to job creators, Senate Democrats have refused to meet their legal and moral obligation to propose and pass a budget.

Paul ryan and ben bernanke discuss currency, credit, jobs and the economy

House Budget Committee hearing Ranking Republican Paul Ryan and Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke www.nysun.com NY Sun Editorial: "Ryan noted that on Tuesday 'gold hit an all-time high,' or, as we like to put it, the value of the dollar fell to an all-time low. Mr. Ryan suggested that most people would view the development 'as a vote of no confidence against fiat currencies.' What he asked the chairman was 'what does that price signal tell you and what is your view of the long-term repercussions with respect to weak currency policies?' He said he supposed one could argue that we don't have a weak dollar because everyone else is weaker, but asked about the implications for a the 'strength and stability of our currency.' The chairman's answer strikes us as a classic. One doesn't go into gold because, as the be-puzzled Mr. Bernanke seems to suggest, one lacks confidence in, say, "other investments," soybeans, say, or iron ore. One goes into gold because one lacks confidence in the fiat currencies." Category: News & Politics Length: 00:05:00 Tags: .

Politicians are the only people in the world who create problems and then campaign against them.. Have you ever wondered, if both the Democrats and the Republicans are against deficits, WHY do we have deficits?

The national debt road trip - presidential & congressional spending

This video clip talks about the rate at which US Presidents increase the national debt in terms of miles per hour when driving a car, a real good visual depiction of what's going on. So how do the Obama deficits compare with past presidents? Keep in mind Obama's not done spending yet and a lot of his legislated spending hasn't even kicked in yet, it's be scheduled to kick in down the road so the next guy in office can take the blame. And how did the national debt get so big? This video tries to answer those questions by looking at the debt as a road trip and seeing how fast different administrations have been traveling.

Stumped: axelrod can't explain why senate dems won't pass a budget

WASHINGTON, March 21--On FOX News last night, senior Obama advisor David Axelrod was unable to explain why the Senate's Democrat majority has refused to produce a budget resolution for well over 1000 days. He initially tried to suggest that "dynamics in the Senate" were to blame, but as anchor Bret Baier pointed out, budgets are privileged documents that only require a simple majority to pass.

Paul ryan: hiding spending doesn't reduce spending

"I will not sign a plan that adds one dime to our deficits -- either now or in the future." (Remarks by President Obama to a Joint Session of Congress, September 9, 2009) This afternoon Budget Committee Ranking Member Ryan walked through why the bill put forward by Democrats FAILS the President's deficit test. -- The Majority Leader said the bill scores as reducing deficit by $131 billion over the next 10 years. First a little bit about CBO: I work with them every single day; very good people; great professionals. They do their jobs well. But their job is to score what is placed in front of them. And what has been placed in front of them is a bill that is fill of gimmicks and smoke and mirrors. Now what do I mean when I say that? First off, the bill has ten years of tax increases and ten years of Medicare cuts to pay for six years of spending. The true ten year cost when subsidies kick-in? $2.3 trillion. The bill is full of gimmicks that more than erase the false claim of deficit reduction: - $52 billion of savings is claimed by counting increased Social Security payroll revenues. These dollars are already claimed for future Social Security beneficiaries, and claiming to offset the cost of this bill either means were double-counting or were not going to pay Social Security benefits. - $72 billion in savings is claimed from the CLASS Act long-term care insurance. These so-called savings are not offsets, but rather premiums collected to pay for future benefits. Senate ... Category: News & Politics Length: 00:04:39 Tags: .
