Paul's campaign website says he supports a flat tax or a fair tax (a.k.a. national sales tax). Both of these taxes would only benefit the rich, especially considering that a sales tax is highly regressive. So under Paul, poor people would get a huge tax increase while the rich get a tax cut.
And as far as cpaital gains and estate taxes, those taxes are mainly paid by rich people. It's yet another tax cut for the 1%.
I wonder how many Paulbots realize that their hero Ron Paul wants to raise their taxes....

I really don't want to see Mitt Romneybot elected president, so I wil vote for Ron Paul in the GOP Primary. Why? Because I want a really crazy person to be the GOP nominee so that Obama can win re-election in a landslide and so that the Republican Party goes the way of the Whig Party. If Ron Paul is the nominee, it will be devestating for the Republican Party and it will take them at least a decade to recover from the damage.
