They are too stupid to understand the concept of "passing on the cost".

“The national budget must be balanced. The public debt must be reduced; the arrogance of the authorities must be moderated and controlled. Payments to foreign governments must be reduced, if the nation doesn't want to go bankrupt. People must again learn to work, instead of living on public assistance.”

It's because they don't have the capacity to understand business and how it works.  They 'feel'.  Their feelings tell them business shouldn't run like that.  Profit is a four letter word to them and something to be avoided at all costs.  Everyone should make the same pay from the Owner to the CEO to the floor hand to the janitor to the high school kid who is emptying waste baskets and cutting the grass.  Everyone should be equal from the time they pop out of the womb to the time they are put in the ground.

Sad really.  With people like that in our country we can't do what needs to be done.

I don't think the Democraps want to touch a VAT before the Nov. elections with a 10 foot pole. Afterwards, the Repubs will gain enough seats to shoot down this stupid idea.

Heh! You really think our current Pubbies wouldn't consider a VAT?

I'm willing to expel them, but who do we wish that kind of suffering on? Castro doesn't even deserve these idiots! I know, how 'bout Chavez? They luv, luv, luv, him anyway! Just ask 'em!
