VIDEO- Paul Ryan: “…Can you have higher revenue growth through more economic growth and tax reform? Yes.”

Via Think Progress, where there are more details, but check this out:

[I]t seems Ryan would be open to such a deal. While he didn’t acknowledge shifting his position, the move comes just two days after S&P downgraded U.S. debt for first time in history, placing much of the blame at the feet of Republicans for refusing to raise revenues.

    He’s posturing.  ”Tax Reform” is Republican speak for a change in the margins (rich tax cuts, corporate tax cuts) and lowering deductions for lower/middle class (mortgage deduction for example).  The media will eat this up with a spoon, but in reality they still just want cuts, and even with “tax reform” the ratio they will demand will be some ridiculous 4 to 1 cuts/revenue.
