Ha, ha, ha.  Everything this Congress and president does is meant to squeeze every penny from the poor and middle class so pay up, sucker.

We don't pay VAT tax.

Nice try, though.

If you're a rich Republican, you could probably claim it anyway.

With less oversight, you might not get caught, and if caught, not prosecuted, and if prosecuted, pardoned.

State taxes, not so much.

The cost of goods increase by Trump’s Trade War is absolutely a tax on American citizens. Thinking otherwise is a sign that you believe the nonsense.

It is.

It's just not VAT.
