Rand Paul Accuses Democrats of Wealth Envy
Says they just want to stick it to the rich
WASHINGTON — In a passionate Monday speech on the Senate floor, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul railed against the notion of raising taxes on the wealthy, and expressed doubts that doing so in a "fiscal cliff" deal would actually help pay off the debt at all.
"You may not get any more revenue," the Kentucky Republican said. "You may not get any more economic growth. But you can say, 'I stuck it to the rich people.'"
