Watch out! Obama administration is looking to implement a Value Added Tax (VAT tax)

Obama and the Democrats continue the outrageous borrowing and spending that happened under the Republicans and the Bush Administration, the Federal Reserve is printing money like mad, and the Chinese are putting pressure on America to maintain the value of the dollar (what the hell kind of monetary system relies on a communist authoritarian dictatorship to prop up its value anyway?). The bill is coming due, and to avoid hyperinflation the Obama administration is scheming to implement a VAT tax, which will break his promise of no tax increases for those making under $250k / year. The false "free market" Fed fraud Alan Greenspan proposed a VAT tax (what the hell kind of "libertarian" saves a bankrupt Social Security system by increasing Social Security taxes, and 20+ years later proposes a VAT tax to pay for big government and health care anyway?). Geithner said new revenue streams will be needed. That's where the VAT comes in. The Republicans and Democrats have been screwing us over way too long - it's time to vote the bastards out and replace them limited government constitutionalists - Ron Paul Republicans and Libertarians.

@iooo007 Current spending levels were given to us by Obama... our most incompetent leader...ever. If we can do as Senator McCain proposed and return spending to 2008 levels... we are nearly balanced. All our most pressing problems (spending, jobs, lack of consumer confidence) are all brought on by Obama. If we can get rid of this idiot in 2012... the economy will bounce back nicely like Germany's economy is today. We love Europe... but your high, intrusive taxes scare us.

@label1877 man when you have 2 tril revenues and 1,4 trilion deficit you can't posibly reduce that much spending it's more than a third ,you can't reduce pensions healthcare education with a third ,yes you can cut military spending in half by ending the war and decomision of military bases around the world but in healthcare education infrastructure etc you can't cut more than 10% ,you think european people wanted higher taxes? as it was imposed to us it will be imposed to you also.

@iooo007 Maybe you don't understand. The USA does not have a revenue problem... we take in 2 TRILLION dollars a year. We have a SPENDING problem... we spend 3 TRILLION a year. Any new and/or higher taxes will simply be wasted on new spending and force a delay in spending cuts. But rest assured... spending cuts ARE coming. Either voluntary or involuntary when China cuts us off from new borrowing.

@label1877 5-6 percent maybe at first man you don't get it US is going to a national debt of 100% of the GDP ,Greece was good until 110% then desaster austeryty measures of at least 10% of the gdp to get 10% of the gdp to the budget you need a 18% vat tax remember sompanies don't pay more only consumers and then consumers will get things from the black market with no tax so 6% you say maybe 18% introduced of course gradualy over 4-5 years ,the guverment maybe will lower income and profit tax

The VAT tax is God awful. This tax hurts the poor because they pay a higher percentage of their income for goods and services. The Democrats will propose a 5 or 6 % VAT tax to fool the masses into supporting it's implementation. Then as soon as it's law, it will be 20%... exactly like Europe's.
