I think the identity politics that have been played, particularly the class-warfare version of identity politics that has been played, has put America into a class-based society - more so than at any point in my lifetime.

More quotes by 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
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
We`re the generous country, we`re the ones that open our doors to other countries, and in many cases we get taken advantage of because of that.
Paul Ryan
We're saying no changes for Medicare for people above the age of 55. And in order to keep the promise to current seniors who've already retired and organized their lives around this program, you have to reform it for the next generation.
Paul Ryan
None of us have to settle for the best this administration offers - a dull, adventureless journey from one entitlement to the next, a government-planned life, a country where everything is free but us.
Paul Ryan
Claiming a person can't do their job because of their race is sort of like the textbook definition of a racist comment. I think that should be absolutely disavowed. It's absolutely unacceptable.
Paul Ryan
When we`re done simplifying the tax code, getting the lobbyist carve outs our of the tax code, lowering our rates and letting people have a simple system, most Americans will be able to fill out their taxes on a postcard.
Paul Ryan
Only by taking responsibility for oneself, to the greatest extent possible, can one ever be free, and only a free person can make responsible choices - between right and wrong, saving and spending, giving or taking.
Paul Ryan
Donald Trump is basically giving voice to a lot of people who have felt that they were voiceless.
Paul Ryan
In a justly organized community, however, government exists to secure the right to life and the other human rights that follow from that primary right.
Paul Ryan
I think there's always a role for Congress under every instance in every administration to conduct oversight of the executive branch.
Paul Ryan
I do have a concern that if we just say no Trans-Pacific Partnership, we`re done, we`re ignoring the region, and then, yes, I think we`re creating a void for China, but that is not what the president [Donald Trump] is saying.
Paul Ryan
A religious test for entering our country is not reflective of America's fundamental values. I reject it.
Paul Ryan
Hiding spending does not reduce spending.
Paul Ryan
In Pennsylvania, 38 percent of Pennsylvania seniors chose to get their Medicare from a plan called Medicare Advantage. It's their choice. Forty-seven percent of them are going to lose it under 'Obamacare' according to Medicare by 2017.
Paul Ryan
Donald Trump heard a voice out in America that no one else heard.
Paul Ryan
We must solve the problem in health care by curbing out-of-control costs that erode paychecks for working families and push quality coverage out of reach for millions of Americans.
Paul Ryan
Donald Trump is a pretty casual guy. He calls me Paul.
Paul Ryan
I'm as pro-life as a person gets. You're not going to have a truce.
Paul Ryan
Not just the jobs building the infrastructure, but you need to have a good highway system. You need to have a good bridge system, a good pipeline system, a good canal and waterway system for economic growth to occur, for a modern economy to succeed.
