I think I remember hearing about him when Ron Paul was popular. I think there was talk if Ron Paul would run as a libertarian or something.

Anyway I think many people who consider themselves conservatives might have issues with this. Note my bolds and the sneaky language.

Tens of billions of dollars in corporate welfare — essentially aid to dependent corporations — should be eliminated. Largesse for middle- and upper-income Americans, particularly so-called “entitlement” programs, must be cut. Billions in so-called defense spending, which protects America’s populous, prosperous allies rather than Americans, must be eliminated.

Eliminate is a solid word with a clear definition. Cut is a soft ambiguous word. So "eliminate" things that most conservatives might like but only "cut" the things they really don't like.
