VAT in America

More and more it looks like America is going to adopt VAT in order to raise some more money from the people. Britain joined the European Union and was landed with VAT. The other member countries already had it. But Mexico and Canada don't have VAT.
It is fairly obvious that smugglers will make another fortune moving booze and ciggies across borders to increase their, already, huge income moving drugs and people. Smugglers don't pay taxes!
Look what happens in the UK. There is a rolling tobacco seller in every pub and bookies in the UK. People make a living, now, booking cheap flights in advance with Ryanair, sometimes for free, or at most a tenner! Couriers are doing two trips a week with carry on knapsacks full of tobacco.
Of course they manage to "sign on" as unemployed too!
Another good one for free travel is the organised footall supporter. people are allowed to work anywhere within Europe. So if they are going for a job interview in a country they are allowed to claim expenses. Enter the computer. Produce a letterhead offering an interview on the date of the match and expenses are available. Buy your match ticket on the credit card and bring back tobacco paid by credit card. Sell tobacco to repay credit card. Oh you didn't get the job but your team won and you made a few quid too! Oh well when is Rudi or Franz coming over for the return leg? E. mail them for me son, would ya?
