| AT&T is also petitioning its employees to jump into the fight, urging them to send mail to their representatives via this web form at the "Don't Tax Our Web" coalition
i agree with you & AT&T, i don't mind paying my fair share of tax's,but IF you get a (detailed) bill as i do look at all the tax's already on it,13 lines of nothing but tax.

Once the government drops a $4 tax on broadband, people might leave or downgrade. That'll start a dropping price war to reduce their own take.
AT&T wants all of the pie and the fork you brought to eat it. |

I disagree on no more e-commerce taxes, unless it also follows that there are no more sales taxes.
Why? It's unfair to stores and local business. It should be all or nothing.
So either:
A) No more sales taxes in general.
OR
B) Every retailer, regardless of the method used to sell the product (store or web site) must collect the tax that applied to wherever the customer lives. I.E. IL customers pay IL sales tax, even on web sites. Same for MO, OR, NC, TX, and so on.
Though I admit that option (A) sounds better. |
