GOP Questions Obama's Economic Plan

The GOP is questioning whether President Obama's economic plan will help or hurt the economy. The main argument made by Republicans is that Obama's plan will hurt future generations.

Rep. Paul Ryan admitted that Obama was given a bad situation to work with. Ryan sees the plan as being a quick fix that will hurt the economy in the long run.

"Put simply: the Democrats’ budget spends too much, taxes too much, and borrows too much from our kids and their kids. … Their budget puts all the sacrifice on future generations. It makes no tough choices. It’s only tough on our children and grandchildren," said Ryan.

Obama's $3.5 trillion budget was passed by the Senate earlier this week.
