With all their attack ads, the President is just throwing away money...and he's pretty experienced at that.
Paul Ryan
Image
I give out Atlas Shrugged as Christmas presents, and I make all my interns read it.
Paul Ryan
Image
That's the real secret to job creation - not borrowing and spending more money in Washington.
Paul Ryan
Image
The moral case for individual initiative in a free economy holds that people have a God-given right to use their creativity to produce things that improve our lives.
Paul Ryan
Image
I spent more time talking with this president [Donald Trump] in the last few days, I think, than I probably talked with this last president [Barack Obama] in the last six months. So this is something that he is working very closely hand in glove with congress.
Paul Ryan
Image
ObamaCare is a massive budget buster, that it is creating massive deficits in the future. And I really believe it's going to destroy the health care plan, the health care system in America.
Paul Ryan
Image
Health and Human Services has an enormous amount of discretion that they have so far used to make it harder to get affordable health care. To make you buy what the government insists you must buy. That doesn`t work.
Paul Ryan
Image
It's a fundamental misunderstanding of human nature and of the concepts of liberty, freedom, and self-determination. It's a fundamental misunderstanding of economics. He (Obama) believes that the pie is fixed and that he needs to more equitably divide up the slices.

We need to stop spending money we don't have.
Paul Ryan
Image
America is more than just a place...it's an idea. It's the only country founded on an idea. Our rights come from nature and God, not government. We promise equal opportunity, not equal outcomes.
Paul Ryan
Image
Chelsea Manning's treachery put American lives at risk and exposed some of our nation's most sensitive secrets. President Obama now leaves in place a dangerous precedent that those who compromise our national security won't be held accountable for their crimes.
Paul Ryan
Image
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
Image
I think it is inflationary. I think it actually is counterproductive in many ways. You end up costing jobs from people who are at the bottom rung of the economic ladder.
Paul Ryan
Image
The man assumed office almost four years ago - isn't it about time he assumed responsibility?
Paul Ryan
Image
Big-government economics breeds crony capitalism. It's corrupt, anything but neutral, and a barrier to broad participation in prosperity.
Paul Ryan
Image
I think it's important to not have some sort of one-size-fits-all program in Washington, which has downsides, like killing entry-level jobs. But pulling people into the workforce...
Paul Ryan
Image
I believe in the principles that built America, I believe in the Constitution.
Paul Ryan
Image
I favored the idea of Trans-Pacific Partnership, but I did not support the administration - the [Barack] Obama administration TPP. There are three or four things they did in that, that I though were terrible agreements that were not worth supporting.
Paul Ryan
Image
No, I’m not one (of those) people who votes for something then writes to the government to ask them to send us money. I did not request any stimulus money.
Paul Ryan

Donald Trump will lead a unified Republican government. And we will work hand-in- hand on a positive agenda to tackle America's big challenges.
