Why does the US not have a GST (goods and services tax)?
Can you explain to me why the US does not have a GST (goods and services tax)?
Sure, the US does not have a national GST or VAT (value-added tax) because it is not part of the federal tax system. Instead, the US relies on a combination of state and local sales taxes, as well as other types of taxes.
