Oh dear. A 10 percent VAT? I suppose that’s just to start, and it’s on top of state sales taxes. And I see that the Democrats want to increase the income tax too. I suppose that will be on top of letting the Bush tax cuts expire. And then there will be Social Security and Medicare tax increases.
At the rate things are going, moving to Alberta in Canada (or even British Columbia) is looking like a wonderful option.
10%???
That’s crazy!
Even under the Liberal government here in Canada we only had 7%.
Now, under the Conservatives, it’s 5%
