Cain does deserve credit for being the only candidate who is serious about the budget. I just think it's somewhat laughable that he is trying to say his tax plan is a tax cut, when in reality, 84% of Americans will pay more.

Paul proposed cutting 1 trillion in spending  :dunno:

Yes, but he also proposed zero taxes of any kind. I'm just not sure how he plans on funding the rest of the federal budget without any tax revenue.

You don't need additional taxes if you cut 1 trillion

He didn't say he wants no additional taxes. He said he wants no taxes at all. Nobody would pay anything.

I'd love to see a link to that, if true would be LOL worthy

I haven't even looked into that much, although I see there's still a 15% corporate tax.

I don't have a link. He said it at last night's debate. I'll see if I can find one later.

Yea went out and found it, he was rebutting Herman Cain's budget plan and said it was regressive. He says what you said he did, that much is very clear.

Paul wants to abolish the income tax, always has.  He doesn't want to abolish all taxes.  He is/was a conservative libertarian, in that he believes taxes deprive people of their personal property and are unjust to the extent used to foster anything more than the minimum level of government (e.g. a police and military to protect the citizens from having their personal property unjustly taken).

you know the "tax policy center" is left-leaning don't you?

However, I'm with the libs on this one.  No one that currently isn't paying any income taxes, should have to pay income taxes.  Their fair share is somewhere between zero and negative infinity.
