It wouldn't fly because the wealthy would figure out a way to buy their goods from overseas and avoid paying tax on it (through some miraculous loophole). The lower and middle classes wouldn't be able to do this. I say they reform the income tax laws instead.

There are places here in AL that have 10% sales tax. Adding another percentage or two would really chafe a lot of people the wrong way.
