Rand Paul Tax Plan

[Marshal Jim Duncan]

I think the projections are a little rosy and the details may need to be tweaked, but this is a good starting point at the very least.

Thanks for posting. I thought he wanted to eliminate capital gains tax all together and I feel like that would be a huge mistake. After reading the article I'm encouraged by his plan and that he still wants to keep some of the tax breaks. I think combining this with spending cuts and Carly Fiorina's zero based budgeting is what is best for the Country. I'm anxious to here what Fiorina's tax plan will be.

The tax plan will never be simplified. The rich like the confusion.

Politicians like the power that it gives them. Paul's plan is the first one I have seen that wants to get rid of the payroll tax.

I had an interesting conversation with a young guy I work with yesterday. He is a millennial, a self described liberal, a registered democrat, and is supporting Rand Paul over Hillary Clinton due to his stance on social issues, the Patriot Act, and our foreign interventions. Please, please, Republican Party understand that this is a guy that can attract voters in a general election that no other Republican candidate can.

You are right but the republican establishment isn't about winning. It's about providing an embodiment of its funding interests.

If it was between Rand Paul and Hillary Clinton, I would vote for Rand Paul without a moment of hesitation.
