Paul Ryan, the Republican Party's 2012 vice presidential candidate and the chairman of the House Budget Committee, has unveiled a new plan to fight poverty. He gave a speech at the American Enterprise Institute, published an op-ed in USA Today, and put a "discussion draft" of the plan, titled "Expanding Opportunity in America," up on the Web. The emphasis is on block-grants to the states, though there is also an earned income tax credit for childless workers in the plan, and some stuff on reducing regulation, including occupational licensing, and on education reform.
