Yesterday, the Congressional Budget Office acknowledged it’s studying a value-added tax, also known as VAT, at the request of unidentified congressional staffers. No dollar amounts were mentioned.
The congressional staffers will have to be identified eventually, and then they will be voted out of office.

Quote:
“The tax code remains too long, too complicated and too chock full of wasteful subsidies and giveaways that don’t make economic sense,” Kerry said in a statement.

“A big reform is overdue. We should simplify. You should look at and consider everything that would take some of the burden off of working people. We should definitely debate alternatives like the VAT, but the test of any idea should be fairness, progressivity and economic growth." -John Kerry
4 more years of dealing with the idiot. I just went to John Kerry's official website to try and find what he's done for Massachusetts lately... can't find anything.
