Tea Party logic...

"we won't vote for any tax rises on 2-3% of the population"

"but if you don't vote for them, everyone gets hit by a tax rise on everyone, our economy could collapse, the stock markets are going to lose confidence."

"We don't care, we won't vote for any tax rises".

Subject: Re:

Artful Dodger: Or do both. Shame the USA does not have a universal VAT system. Then, non essentials such as a $200,000 car can have a little extra added on that.

Things like food get no VAT added... just luxury items that no-one has to buy unless they want to.
