And that is really scary.....like the "temporary" 1% city sales tax Montgomery added about 10 years ago.....I guess the duration of "temporary" is in the eyes of the beholder because we still have it and nobody in Government seems interested in ending it.

Point is that if a VAT is implemented, its percentage will creep and creep until we are where Italy and other European countries are now -- 20% -- Talk about turning the country and its approach to business upside down.....

I am about to believe that a guy, who I thought was a flake (Tom G), and who who actively advocates throwing them ALL out, may actually have the right answer. Maybe we need drastic action, because we are on a direct path to failure.

By the way, if we throw out the politicians we need to throw out their staffers too. Otherwise it will be business as usual, but with new faces and the same old BS.
