It's actually Four Trillion in 3 years.

 

What's amusing about that Paul Ryan's big plan cuts 4 Trillion... in 10 years.

While Obama's cuts 4 Trillion in 12 years.


So in otherwords all the budget cut talk is funny enough, not nearly drastic enough.

That's what really shows the bias of Ryan's plan, though. All it'd take is 20% longer, you'd save the same amount, but it wouldn't cripple social programs like Ryan's would. It's an almost unveiled attack on our human services

And actually some analysts say that Ryans plan would actually increase debt and not decrease it

Distant relatives of Pachter? How can a $4 trillion cut in government spending increase debt?


The same way economists say the stimulus saved us from the deficit.  Economic models that essentially are created with the assumption that the theory you prefer is reality in the firstplace.

No matter how bad you fail, you can plug in the numbers and say we'd of failed worse otherwise.

Partly because it gets rid of the new healthcare plan, which people insure is going to save the country money... even though all it does is set up a comparison website and forces everyone to buy insurance.
