Rep. Paul Ryan (WI) delivered the Republican response to President Obama’s State Of The Union, and focused on the country’s economic problems and government debt, which he said can be solved through “limited government and free enterprise” which “have helped make America the greatest nation on earth.” That’s opposed to how the current administration has “engaged in a stimulus spending spree that not only failed to deliver on its promise to create jobs, but also plunged us even deeper into debt.”Ryan began by noting that the President “focused a lot of attention on our economy in general – and on our deficit and debt in particular. He was right to do so, and some of his words were reassuring.”
