Considering that they support flattening the income tax code or going with the revenue-neutral FairTax (which is still an income tax since it increases the govt's income and since all taxes are really taxes on income, property, wealth or whatever you want to call what you rightfully own) rather than doing away with the income tax altogether along with the fact that they voted to pay furloughed workers, I'd have to say they're pretty moderate.

Broadening the base while reducing the top marginal rate brings in more revenue than raising the top marginal rate and decreasing the base and Tea Partier Cuccinelli wants to do the former... Ken Cuccinelli may or may not be an extremist on abortion and marriage, but he is definitely not for low taxes and low expenditure.

Rand Paul is the same way as he supports insanely high levels of govt spending and raising taxes to pay for it.

Doesn't that mean the govt should be dissolved since there isn't anyone in Congress who is anti-tax?

Do they think society owes them something or that they have the right to steal from people? Aren't they all a bunch of fucking socialist sociopaths?
