Big-government economics breeds crony capitalism. It's corrupt, anything but neutral, and a barrier to broad participation in prosperity.

Activist government overreach and ongoing economic stagnation have shown us why Washington should not try to displace what is best left to civil society.

From Paul Ryan

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.

From Paul Ryan

I really don't have tremendous political ambition. I have policy ambition.

From Paul Ryan

We wonder if we will be the first generation in American history to leave our children with fewer opportunities and a less prosperous nation than the one we inherited.
