Rand Paul Wants to Kill Taxes with Fire and Chainsaws

Rand Paul has made it clear in the past that he stands with the tea party’s call to slash taxes, but in a new video from his personal YouTube channel, he proved just how badly he wants to destroy them.

Paul has made tax reform a major component of his presidential platform, and in his new ad, he wants Americans to not only vote for him, but also on how they want to see him destroy “all 70,000 pages” of the current tax code. The video offers viewers the choice of whether to burn them, slice them up with a chainsaw, or send them through a wood chipper.

In an interview with Fox this morning, Paul said, “My favorite was actually taking a chainsaw to the tax code.”
