Obama Allies Continue Laying VAT Groundwork

From Americans for Tax Reform:

Despite President Barack Obama's "firm pledge" not to raise "any form" of taxes on families making less than $250,000 per year, the President's advisors and Democratic allies continue to float the creation of a Value-Added Tax (VAT).

"It's getting more and more obvious that President Obama and Democrats in Washington, D.C. are laying the groundwork for a VAT," said ATR President Grover Norquist. "Apparently not content with violating his tax promise several times during the healthcare reform debate, President Obama now wants to tax every purchase made by every American -- including those earning less than $250,000."
