Here’s how Paul Ryan plans to teach Scrooge a lesson

Here’s how Paul Ryan plans to teach Scrooge a lesson
"If Paul Ryan had written A Christmas Carol, Scrooge would have gotten a massive tax break, paid for by taking away Tiny Tim's health insurance. The obvious lesson of the tale would be that a small businessman had been rewarded for creating a job for Bob Crachit - who could enjoy working overtime on Christmas without the fear of additional compensation, as well as the freedom of knowing that he won't be able to retire until he's at least 70, if ever. Ryan's glorious vision of Christmas yet to come may sound like a nightmare to you - but if the Speaker of the House gets his way, that nightmare will become America's reality by the end of 2017."
