As a Catholic, Ryan knows that he is at odds with the pope has been urging. All this as he "struggles" to reconcile unbridled greed with claiming the moral high ground. At the end of the day, upward wealth redistribution does all the talking.

Shadbelly coats and top hats to the oligarchs. They will probably expect me to recompense them for the toll road charges and bridge fees, and validate their secure parking. Hopefully I won't have to pay the private police force too much to roust the beggars, panhandlers and pickpockets away from my fine establishment so my affluent customers won't be accosted by the hoi polloi. I sure don't want to pay more local taxes, so let the police do their job and then the private waste pickup service will charge extra for body removal. Such is life in the new Corporate America, Ltd.
