Woops.. missed your post..

Yea.. and the fun part is that since a VAT tax hurts "the poor" they will set up a deal where those "poor" that don't pay ANY income tax will get a tax credit to help offset the costs to them for a VAT tax.

So those of us that work will pay our VAT tax AND thier VAT tax.

But we should stay on the GM topic. I also heard that they've been directed to kill the Hummer brand.
