Thread: All things being equal would you vote for a VAT?

My real income has declined every year for the last five while my percentage of income paid as tax has stayed the same or risen every year. My property tax alone went up 15% last year in real dollars well the value of said property declined by 25%. I'm already of the opinion that we need a popular uprising in order to effect the changes that will bring about any kind of prosperity. Especially as I know for a fact that out representatives aren't listening to us at all, in fact the nearest congressman actually had an audience of hand picked people bussed in to attend his town hall meeting while denying admittance to many of his constituents so he wouldn't have to deal with their objections to his opinions. Its time to wash out the old, in fire if we must.

No new taxes.
