Over- rated VAT

A lot of controversy is going on regarding the imposition of 15 percent VAT on all goods and services. In advanced countries, VAT is imposed on producers of goods and services and not on consumers. If there is any sales tax then the consumers are required to pay this. In no country of the world is Value Added Tax as high as 15 percent.
