Most Likely Form Of Tax Increase - VAT

Looks like their tossing around the idea of a VAT or value added tax - if the economy recovers to the point where it could support it.
If you make anything in your basement, or if you sell decals and books that you published yourself, that's a scary tax...
If you've ever shipped a package overseas you've probably noticed the VAT field, but left it blank. That's because we're one of the few countries that have been without it. Basically, you pay a tax on whatever value you add to the product from the raw material or pre-manufactured stage.
