Jon Stewart explained Thursday night how the Rep. Paul Ryan’s (R-WI) budget plan would save the nation huge sums of money: by using a thick Ayn Rand novel to bludgeon seniors to death, and thus decrease Medicare spending.
Ryan’s budget plan, which would effectively end the Medicare program as we know it, was widely panned as unrealistic by economists. But Stewart thinks Ryan might actually be on to something.
First, he explained that we could save tons of money if everyone just got a sensible, neat haircut like Ryan’s. But the biggest savings would come, “by building a machine that beats old people to death with a giant copy of The Fountainhead.”
