Rep. Paul Ryan On Wisconsin Protests: "Like Cairo Moved To Madison"

Rep. Paul Ryan On Wisconsin Protests:

Rep. Paul Ryan (R-Wis.) talks about Wisconsin public workers protesting against a bill that has them make a contribution to their pension and health care benefits. It also eliminates collective bargaining.

"It's not asking a lot, it's still about half of what private sector pensions do and health care packages do. So he's [the Governor is] basically saying, I want you public workers to pay half of what our private sector counterparts and he's getting riots -- it's like Cairo has moved to Madison these days," Rep. Ryan told MSNBC's "Morning Joe."
