So being from a country with a VAT tax I find it hard to understand why American's are so much against such a tax, especially when it could save their country from financial ruin as well as help the unemployed and grow the struggling economy.

Easy said than done. For one, the implementation of this tax will be costly especially for a fragile economy like America's.
