No ‘magic potion’ will make the GOP budget plan work

Jennifer Granholm is joined by Dean Baker, co-director of the Center for Economic and Policy Research, to discuss the GOP’s proposed budget plan. Dean Baker says Representative Paul Ryan’s budget plan not only cuts care to the country’s most vulnerable but “ignores all the evidence all around us” that proves these kinds of cuts just don’t work.

“(Paul Ryan) acts as though there will be some magic,” Baker said, ”that if we hand over (health care) to the states that the governors have some magic potion that will make all their dollars go further. Well, we’ve tried this… and it costs more.”
