Thinks s/he gets paid by the post
I look for no major changes. Our law makers have to find a way to game the system and purchase votes. In order to do this, they will have to maintain high income tax on the 'rich' and lower the tax on the poor. However, to the extent the rich invest and spend outside the US, they will lower their VAT/NRST. The poor on the other hand do not have this option. So the politicians will begin to exempt things from the VAT/NRST, food, clothing, housing, kids cloths, or higher give backs based on income. The end results, the 'rich' will pay. I also expect to se many early retirees classified somehow as 'rich'. It is a small group with little or no political clout, and generally with money. A perfect target for greedy politicians.
