In response to:

Paul Ryan’s Budget Is a Moral Budget

Keep in mind, though, this is like his third try to reform the system. He has been dialing back his expectations slowly with each new budget, since no one seemed to have the stomach to fix the problem now. Dems lost a chance to look conciliatory by choosing his "fix things over 40 years" solution over the "refuse to raise the debt ceiling and outlaw deficit spending right now" solution.

Rep. Paul Ryan, (R-Wis), chairman of the House budget committee, provoked some angry push back when he claimed that not only is his proposed sweeping revamp of the US budget fiscally sound but also morally sound.

In a CBN interview, Ryan said he draws inspiration from his Catholic faith.

He argues that Catholic priority for caring for the poor should focus on helping folks move out of poverty. “…..don’t make people dependent on government so they stay stuck in their station in life, help people get out of poverty out onto life of independence.”

Catholics criticizing Ryan don’t see it this...
