Quote:
The VAT is basically a sales tax
And as you say, VAT is much more sinister than a simple sales tax. It's added in at various stages of procurement and manufacturing, not just at the end of the retail cycle. In some cases, even those producing the product don't know how much the gov't is stealing, because hidden costs are added to their raw materials.

Politicians love it because they can often hide the amount they are charging consumers.
And there' talk about doing it in the States as well. Ba$tards.
