Paul Ryan: A Time for Choosing

Young Gun Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI) is extremely bright and informed. He is also and an excellent communicator.Recently he appeared on CNBC to discuss his Roadmap For America’s Future.


Via GatewayPundit :
Are we going to reclaim the American idea?
An entrepreneurial economy where you make the most of your life, you can maximize your potential; reinvigorate the principles of liberty, freedom, free enterprise – and defend its morality – or – are we going to abandon the American idea, and become a stagnant European-style cradle-to-grave welfare state, where we drain people of their incentive and will to make the most of their lives, and become more dependent on the government? The President and the people that run Congress are dedicated progressives. They believe that we ought to have the government so much more involved in our lives, with the government – not ourselves – as the determining factor of our destiny. The country must answer the question: do we want an entrepreneurial society that gets the prosperity turned back on in the 21st century, where individual merit and entrepreneurial activity defines the American economy – or – are we going to have more and more people dependent on the government for their livelihoods? That is the fork in the road – and the urgency of the time for choosing is being precipitated by the current direction of our government and the looming debt crisis, driven by the explosion in entitlement spending. We must decide what kind of a country we are going to be in the 21st century.

Examining Black Loyalty to Democrats

I've got to hand it to Zo, he hits most of the points.  I would go even further and say that the socio-economic policies of the Democratic Party, in it's current form, results in economic slavery by creating a class of dependent citizens.  These citizens will support the hands that feed them, while never noticing that their other freedoms were given away in exchange for relief from the burden of personal responsibility and comfort.  Quite similar to the physical slavery by the Democrats of the past.  Only this time, blacks aren't the only ones enlaved.  It's the middle and lower classes of all races and genders.
