Paul Ryan Lost The Election But He Insists On Running Fiscal Policy

Mitt Romney's running mate has a one track mind.  Paul Ryan's budget policies were rejected in the 2012 election but that has not deterred him from imposing them on the country that rejected them.  The budget that he pushed through the GOP House is even worse than the one on which he ran.  It includes tax cuts for the rich, and substantial cuts on programs that benefit ordinary Americans. The plutocrats that supported him in the election are encouraging him to push their agenda.  He has been a constant guest on the Sunday TV talk shows.  They never seem to tire of his fear mongering about the deficit and the need to cut government spending and cut taxes for the plutocrats.  I guess it helps to own the media that inform the public on government policy.
