We must solve the problem in health care by curbing out-of-control costs that erode paychecks for working families and push quality coverage out of reach for millions of Americans. – Paul Ryan
We do not have a functioning market in the true sense of the word in health care. Thats a layer of transparency thats sorely needed in America. – Paul Ryan
We need leadership. We dont need a doubling down on the failed politics of the past. – Paul Ryan
Obama is trying to paint us as a caricature, as if were some bizarre individualists who are hardcore libertarians. Its a false dichotomy and intellectually lazy. Of course we believe in government. We think government should do what it does really well, but that it has limits. – Paul Ryan
Increased revenues, meaning higher taxes, will be a central element of any successful long-term budget plan, and President Obama is right to insist that the wealthy – the slice of America that has come through the recession in by far the best financial health – should provide those funds. – Steven Rattner
