I still can't get behind the idea that it is a substantiative plan if it is based on imaginary numbers.
Lots of people have put out plans to solve the problem based on completely bogus premises, Ryan isn't exactly plowing new ground there. Let's start with some agreed upon and realistic numbers and not invoke any magic hand waving (like more than full employment) and then see what plans everyone can come up with. I'm all in favor of detailed plans that attempt to actually take care of the structural deficit. Ryan's doesn't do that though, so I just can't see why anyone would take it as a genuine attempt at starting a real discussion about fixing things.
