I’ll believe it when I see it. Every few elections we see this but nothing comes of it. And I definitely don’t like Cruz’s desire for a VAT. That would be horrible.
Agree. The VAT is just the way the Government can keep claiming more and more. In the 80’s, the VAT in Britain was 15%. Foreigners could claim it back when exiting the country as the citizens were the only ones required to pay it. Now the VAT there is 20%. But I like the Flat Income Tax idea. One observation on that: there would be a boatload of tax accountants out of work!
