Anti-corporation? He doesn't want to tax the richest of the rich either.

PAUL: I’m pretty critical of a lot of millionaires and billionaires because they ripped us off. They got the bailout, they enjoyed the benefits of the bubble, they get contracts from government, they’re part of the military industrial complex, the banking system is in bed with the government. So they don’t deserve this money. They should not only be taxed, but they should have all their benefits removed.

Also hasn't proposed anything that would help regulate the outsourcing of jobs,
Quote:
"Outsourcing is a reflection of a bad economic environment domestically. If you fix that, you fix outsourcing. Our primary export is paper money, and that should change if you change the monetary policy. We should drop the Overseas Investment Protection Corporation -- which makes taxpayers cover losses for U.S. companies doing business in foreign countries -- have a sound currency and lower taxes. With that we could become competitive again, but that is going to be very very difficult."

The second provision is something which I'm shocked is in place now, but that still doesn't prevent jobs from being outsourced. Again I'm wondering whose taxes will be lowered out of the general "American taxpayers".
Bottling corporations drain streams and creeks, claiming they can do so because they own part of the property where they pass through, at the expense of their neighbors. Water rights are more important than you think, the movie "Flow" documents this pretty well. For those of us here who are so fortunate, we are truly lucky to have running water.
