When I was in London in 1996 our guide was doing a bit of discussion about the VAT and how the proponents gave exactly that line of shit out when it was proposed.
They now have the VAT AND an income tax. So blow your VAT out your ass.
No matter how you slice it, it is still a sales tax which hits the poor harder than the rich. Why do you think rich cocksuckers are in favor of it. Stop being so naive, Poop.

You don't need both, UK happen to start both cause they are stupid?
Our income tax is currently stupid and favors the rich so WTF is wrong with trying something else? All you people do is bash and never give any ideas. I don't see Obama doing shit, so you tell me how the US is going to get any better.
