Whataya think? Will the GOP take the hint from numerous polls? The people keep dropping subtle hints, especially to the pollsters…..
The people want government to cut spending…..but not with Social Security or Medicare or Medicaid a recent poll showed…I believe it was a WSJ poll…..Defense seems to be the target for most people…end wars and adventurism around the world…..more closely control government contracts…..etc……and of course, the middle class is asking why the rich cannot pay more in taxes…..
Rep. Paul Ryan has given the country his ideas on the budget (actually they are just rehashes of the thinking of the Heritage Foundation) and there has been a lot of back and forth…….not among the people but rather from the self-serving little pills in Congress……he has been called bold and courageous and visionary…….but what do the people, I am talking about real people….average people….think of “his” Path To Prosperity?
It seems that at a recent townhall in his home state of Wisconsin….Ryan was met with an unexpected response to his saying that the wealthy need to pay less in taxes…….
Watch it http://t.co/0EkokIb
Of course this was a townhall meeting in Wisconsin and it may be a reaction to the policies of their new Repub governor….it may not be Ryan’s fault at all…..no one believes that so why would I say it? Dunno….I guess I was just trying to be “fair and balanced”……
The GOP might want to watch this closely….it could be a harbinger of things to come…..as the people become more knowledgeable on his proposals to basically eliminate SS, Medicare and Medicaid the people will NOT allow this to continue and there is an election coming up…..let us see how many start running away from these proposals……
Will they (GOP) take the hint?
Time will tell.
Or maybe we’ll all get wiped out on 5/21/11 and it will be moot….
I think we will have to wait until 12/21/12…….
