Either you are failing to read what he is writing or deliberately misinterpreting it.  Would you advocate government sponsored or conducted vocational training to help people such as the woman who couldn't get a straight answer from Paul Ryan?  Because that's more of an answer than he was able to give for how he could help her become not dependent on the government.  Which, logically, is what he had to have been getting at with the fish parable.  Only he was unable to give any specifics whatsoever to ground that fable in actual proposed policy. 

"What is YOUR solution to getting people taught to fish?  Care to name what they should train in, and how they will pay for it?  If you can't do that, you neither care to give a man to fish, or teach him how to fish."

The reading fail is yours, friend. Richard wants a government that is going to tell people, "Hey you! Go over here and do this! This is where the money is!" He's been pretty clear about that. The problem is, the government does this and all it's done is to stoke bubble after bubble.
