Stand by for one nasty tax increase idea. There has been talk in Washington of the "need" for a European-style tax on everything: the Value Added Tax, or VAT Tax.
The Los Angeles Times recently published an Op-Ed saying:
"A value-added tax would go a long way toward solving several of the country's fiscal and tax problems." (America Needs a VAT, Los Angeles Times, 5/24/10)
"A value-added tax would go a long way toward solving several of the country's fiscal and tax problems." (America Needs a VAT, Los Angeles Times, 5/24/10)
"President Obama told CNBC that a VAT is one of the major tax-reform alternatives being considered to close the budget gap." (America Needs a VAT, Los Angeles Times, 5/24/10)
And House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has suggested that a VAT Tax be considered as a principal means to reduce the federal deficit and generate more tax dollars for the federal government.
