- _delirium 14y agoTrue, but VAT is pretty trivial as a percentage of my overall expenses. Completely swamped by other factors, like the difference in rent, and the fact that the transit is so good I don't have to pay to own/maintain/insure a car. I would guess I spend $500-1000/mo on VAT-applicable goods and services, so we're talking a difference of $80-160/mo compared to CA sales tax.
