Rand Paul:
I'm running for president to defeat the Washington Machine. And
to do that, we have to drive a stake through the heart of the IRS and
our terrible taxk code. We need to tear it up and start over with
a plan that's simple, fair and cuts taxes for every single
America.
Let's start with a workers' tax cut. For most Americans, the
biggest tax they pay is the FICA tax on their paycheck and all anyone
ever tries to do is raise that tax or pretend you aren't paying it.
In my tax cut plan the first thing we'll do is eliminate the
workers' tax. That's right--it's gone. Zero.
Nothing. That means every single working American will keep
thousand of dollars more in their paycheck each year.
But we're not stopping there. We will end corporate welfare
and eliminate the army of lobbyists and tax lawyers gaming the system.
All special tax breaks will be gone in exchange for one low flat
rate of 14.5-percent that every single business will pay. No more
billion dollar corporations paying zero. But also no more mom and
pop businesses paying 40-percent. Everyone pays the same.
And it'll grow our economy.
In fact the Tax Foundation studies show my paln will create nearly
two million jobs.
Finally, every American taxpayer, every one, will be able to file a
very simple return on one page at a low and fair rate of 14.5 percent.
This is a tax cut for every single American and the guy with the
most lawyers and accountants doesn't win. You do.
My plan will cut taxes for everyone, it will end corporate welfare
and special tax breaks, it will create jobs, and it will get the IRS
out of your life.
It's the first part of my plan to defeat the Washington
Machine. This will shake up Washington and Wall Street, no
doubt. But I'm not running for their approval. I'm runnning
to take our government back, and with this plan it starts today.
