Voters Like Paul's Honesty | Michael D. Tanner | Cato Institute: Commentary

Voters Like Paul's Honesty | Michael D. Tanner | Cato Institute: Commentary: 'At a time when our country is drowning in debt, the other GOP candidates seem unwilling to venture much beyond the idea of cutting “fraud, waste, and abuse.” Paul, on the other hand, has a specific plan to cut $1 trillion from the federal budget next year, including abolishing five cabinet agencies. That may or may not be practical, but it speaks to those seeking a smaller, less costly, less intrusive government, in a way that other candidates, with their 59-point plans for carefully trimming this agency or that, do not.'
