Paul Ryan: Giving up groceries so you can buy gold plated rims for your tires

"We're broke!" is what he says about Medicare.
"It's going to go bankrupt in a matter of years!" is the line about Social Security

Time for a game of 'Paul Ryan Dad', here's an example:

"Hey kids, nobody will be going to the dentist anytime soon, but I got this medium to come over and do a magical blessing on the lawn to make it grow better!"
