Have the billionaires pay taxes at the same rate I pay, and have corporations pay a minimum 25%, and our debt would be paid off in 10 years completely. Rand Paul is correct. We don't need to raise the debt limit, we just need to have the folks that have and make most of the money pay their fair share. Like that's gonna happen....

Republicans Are A Disease!

By the way Rand, please explain why I have to pay more in just withholding taxes than Mitt Romney pays in income tax. You know, Mitt Romney. The guy that make millions robbing workers of their pensions, and shipping workers jobs overseas.
