Political Factoid
The legacy of Speaker of
the House Paul Ryan (R-WI):
- He never once represented
(nor even tried to represent)
the entire House nor the
American people as a whole,
and instead only represented
his partisan caucus and
Republican supporters.
- He pushed for tax reform
(to increase the income
and wealth-gaps) and
getting only a $1.50
per week pay gain for
the working middle class.
- He was complacent
with the abandonment
of America's global
leadership.
- He responded to the
growing deficit/debt
by adding to it, big
time.
- He advocated a
fundamental restructuring
of Medicare and entitlements
(e.g., by eliminating them)
- He led an intensification
in the nation's political
discourse.
- He supported the Yemen
war on children.
- He never advocated emphasizing
limited government, nor personal
responsibility, nor morality.
- He left office with the
Government shut down.
