Re: [MA] Higher MA taxes. What are your thoughts? Ridiculous. All the increases are all really. Just a example of mismanagement of funds that we the people bear the price of out of our own wallet.
The one in particular that gets me, as I am also a user of satellite television, is the new 5% tax on satellite television. I do not understand how the Legislature and the Governor can reason a tax for one service but not others? Why are satellite service users the ONLY ones taxed? What about Comcast, Verizon FIOS, RCN users? That would be like taxing customers of Toyota for but not customers of Honda. This sounds like works of either cable or telco lobbyist and if so can only be explained as nothing other than punitive and anti-competitive.
The $1,000,000,000 tax INCREASE, especially now is frankly disgusting and irresponsible.
