| Re: If you can't drop your own rates.... You have no clue what it is you are talking about.
Most cable taxes are there as franchise fees and other "payoffs" for them to have exclusive rights to that territory. How the muni uses that tax is up to them, but this attempt is simply cable trying to raise the rates of it's competitors without providing them more profit so they dont have to lower theirs.
If your muni wants to collect taxes to cover the cost of services being offered they need to find another way of doing it or drop the service. If not we can expand your flawed reasoning to having an internet tax on all purchases and even internet connections. |
