Jophed,
So does this mean the Democrats no longer support the VAT tax?
I mean that is the same EXACT tax system greece is currently using isn't it?
Obama,
Quote:
When asked if he could see a potential VAT in this nation, the president said: "I know that there's been a lot of talk around town lately about the value-added tax. That is something that has worked for some countries. It's something that would be novel for the United States."

Sounds to me like Obama is supporting the same tax system that Greece and the other faltering eu countries are currently using.
So does Obama praise Greece? No he just praises their method of doing things.
