HMMM? How's that work? I don't think Japan or China have VATs, but I would expect one soon here in the US. That will make what few goods we still produce really attractive to everyone. Of course, if we do add a VAT, expect imported goods to have duties placed on them to make up for lost revenue by not being able to apply a VAT. It's OK though, because after Obama's only term as President we can elect someone who's not such a Socialist and do away with a lot of the damage he did. An Obama supporter on Meet the Press (an editor for the New Yorker) said that we will have to increase exports in order to build employment and pay for Obama's programs (this is a SUPPORTER, mind you). I wonder what he expects we're going to export? We've given away a lot of our edge on technology so that the Chinese are doing the bulk of the manufacturing. I don't get that. I repair (MFGR name removed) computers, and do a lot of laptops. It takes me ~17 minutes to completely assemble a laptop. Why don't we just do it here? Even with the pay rates and benefits US workers demand, it still would be not that more expensive to do assembly here, even if the parts were made in China and brought here for assembly. AFAIK the only computers that are assembled here by this company are servers. Now, do I feel guilty about being a fan of Japanese cars? Maybe a little. But Toyotas manufactured here in the US have higher failure rates than their Japanese made counterparts.
