Does Ron Paul's policies actually mean higher taxes for individuals on the state level?

I would have to say no. Between the 11% income tax, plus FICA, Medicaid and Medicare, there's approximately 20% of individual tax monies to be worked with. If it should happen that a particular state needed the full amount paid to them instead, it would end up even. Remember that the further your tax dollar gets away from your local taxing body, the less representative it is of your needs.
