Why are conservatives harping on the ridiculous idea that Democrats will support a Value-Added Tax when they know it's not true? Mark Levine on FOX challenged them to put their money where their mouth is.
@PissedFechtmeister Yes, but he also said that no one making under $250k would see new taxes (so they call everything a fee now lol.) Basically, he has come out on both sides of the issue so nothing he says really matters. We can only watch what they DO.
They only say it's on the table because they don't want to take away the powers of the deficit commission before it meets. I think Levine describes well in the comment to his website on this issue exactly why FOX made up this trial balloon.

Levine is such a liar. Democrats are not opposed to a VAT. Nancy Pelosi has said that it's on the table. Obama has said it's on the table.
