Randian Ryan? Extra Extra Read All About It Ayn Rand Spinning in her Grave

Maureen Dowd says it best here and below. Paul Ryan professes, at least economically, to be the philosophical lover of Ayn Rand's so called "rugged individualism" -- deregulated capitalism lover of small government run wild. For a guy who professes such a life changing admiration of anything economically Randian it certainly is quizzical how he voted as a US House Representative not only for Bush's TARP (bank bailout) he professes to loathe and for the reckless unpaid spending for the NO weapons of mass destruction Iraq War. Salt and pepper in a few other unpaid for spending sprees like Bush's Medicare Part D to boot and you can almost hear Ayn Rand spinning like a top in her grave.

Paul Ryan never saw an unreasonable 4th Amendment rollover he did not like as he supported every national security bill allowing government access to anything you own including your life habeas corpus be damned. Ayn Rand hated most things big government but Paul Ryan does not. He loves it especially if it means government can snoop on even granny's phone calls, email, her sex life, limit her access to contraception, and end the availability of abortion. Granny worries about contraception and abortion? Well, no, but you get my drift.

Paul Ryan was not exactly a rags to riches guy either but more like a riches to riches guy who was raised in a more than affluent home, a lifestyle he had to "overcome" to make himself richer. He wants everyone else to sink or swim on their own and raise themselves up by their bootstraps that he already possessed as a child. If you do not posses such bootstraps well too bad it’s your bad.
 
Extra, extra read all about it, Republican Paul Ryan, hypocrite de jour, contender for the Republican heart-beat away from the presidency VP slot. Beware of Trojan Horse Republicans bearing things they say are gifts. They may not be gifts at all but venomous richest 1% snakes taking everything you have and stuffing their made on Wall Street pants pockets with your taxpayer money they dupe you to cough up forcing the middle class and the poor to pay more and the richest 1% to pay less. It is trickle UP economics sublime. Is this the American Dream my 4th grade teacher said was the essence of America? I do not think so. How about the American Nightmare for the lower 99%.
