So, this means, a US company, in theory, has to pay the EU for example 21% of the money charged to any member that is from Belgium. Or 19% for any member that is in Germany or the Netherlands and so on...

BTW, I think you arenīt right so far. EU VAT laws - as far as I know - are related to the company base. So there is no VAT as long as a non EU based company sells goods or services to a private EU based customer.
