Killer,

Yes Paul would gut the federal gov't if he could, but all those services would be picked up by the states...kind of like the Constitution says they are supposed to. We would be a much less contentious country if individual state governors and legislators were having an honest conversation with their constituents about the services they want how much taxes they were willing to pay for them. If you think about the federal govt only exercising the powers enumerated by the Constitution for them the federal income tax would probably not even be necessary. Good Bye IRS!!!
