In government-directed economies, the collective takes priority over the individual. The moral ideal is equal results. That approach could not be further removed from the real world.

PACs corrupt the system. They handle vast amounts of money and the money corrupts.
Paul Ryan
When government misleads the country about a terrorist attack, that erodes trust.
Paul Ryan
We have got to go and compete for the minds and the hearts and the votes of everybody in this country, no matter who they are. And what I think we've had is one party takes a group of people for granted and another party has not paid attention to them.
Paul Ryan
We have a real economic growth problem in America. We are limping along. Wages are flat. And jobs aren’t being created near to the extent that they could and should be. So we think regulatory relief is very, very important.
Paul Ryan
Our point is we don`t want to sit in the government and tell you what you have to buy [as a health insurance]. We want to make this work so that you have choices, so that we have more competition.
Paul Ryan
Mitt Romney and I know the difference between protecting a program, and raiding it. Ladies and gentlemen, our nation needs this debate. We want this debate. We will win this debate.
Paul Ryan
We must be clear. White supremacy is repulsive. This bigotry is counter to all America stands for. There can be no moral ambiguity.
Paul Ryan
I believe in the principles that built America, I believe in the Constitution.
Paul Ryan
While President Obama shirks his responsibility to advance solutions to our fiscal challenges, he can no longer hide from the merciless math of the balance sheet. Conservatives have made certain of that.
Paul Ryan
That's what's going to matter at the end of the day. Did we improve people's lives? Did we solve the problems that the American people need solved? Are we addressing the concerns of people who are tired of being tired?
Paul Ryan
There are a lot of different ways of getting Mexico to contribute to doing this. And there are different ways of defining how exactly they pay for it. [Donald Trump] has a promise that he made to the American people which is to secure our border. A wall is a big part of that.
Paul Ryan
The appointment of a special counsel, I think, helps assure people and the Justice Department that they are going to go do their jobs independently and thoroughly, which is what we called for all along.
Paul Ryan
It's no coincidence that trust in government is at an all-time low now that the size of government is at an all-time high.
Paul Ryan
The stimulus was a case of political patronage, corporate welfare, and cronyism at their worst.
Paul Ryan
Look, only in Washington is not raising taxes considered a tax cut. Nobody's getting a tax cut here. We're not cutting taxes. We're preventing tax increases from occurring.
Paul Ryan
What I'm concerned about is endless borrowing, which is going to compromise our economy not only today but in the future. Because we know the decisions we make right now really dramatically impact us in the future, and the debt is literally getting out of our control.
Paul Ryan
Obamacare comes to more than two thousand pages of rules, mandates, taxes, fees, and fines that have no place in a free country.
Paul Ryan
Faster economic growth helps raise the economy which raises revenues. And that helps us tackle the deficit. There's two things we've got to do to get rid of this debt. Deal with entitlements, that's why we're frustrated health care reform hasn't passed the senate yet.
Paul Ryan
A Clinton presidency is an Obama third term. And it's very difficult for them to get away from it.
Paul Ryan
Since taking office, President Obama has signed into law spending increases of nearly 25 percent for domestic government agencies - an 84 percent increase when you include the failed stimulus. All of this new government spending was sold as 'investment.'
