maybe you’ve heard of this?


The Internet Tax Nondiscrimination Act, Pub.L. 108-435, is the current U.S. federal law that bans Internet taxes in the United States. Signed into law on December 3, 2004, by President George Bush, it extended until 2007 the then-current moratorium on new and discriminatory taxes on the Internet. It also extended the federal prohibition against state and local Internet access taxes until November 2007.

The law's co-authors were Representative Chris Cox (R-California), Senator George Allen (R-Virginia), and Senator Ron Wyden (D-Oregon).

The law was supported by a congressionally-sponsored study commission known as the Advisory Commission on Electronic Commerce, which studied Internet taxes in 1999 and 2000. The Commission was chaired by then-Virginia Governor James S. Gilmore, III, who led a coalition of Commission members to issue a final report opposing taxation of the Internet and eliminating federal telephone taxes, among other ideas.

Passed by a GOP led congress and signed by a GOP President…

And now:

The current ban should be extended temporarily, "if at all," said Senator Daniel Inouye, a Hawaii Democrat and chairman of the Senate Commerce, Science, and Transportation Committee.

He's the guy in charge now... meaning that he can tax you all by himself by only letting the current ban expire. By doing nothing... Fun huh?

So, boys and girls when the Democrats tell us ‘we want to tax the rich!’ they mean YOU… the users of the internet.

Have a great day…

Was there any debate that taxes would be appreciably higher with Dems in charge? First campaign I've ever seen when politicians were actually arguing FOR higher taxes. Guess what - they won.

Now bend over.

Inouye is a mental invalid. Sane Democrats are not going to giftwrap a campaign issue like this one for the GOP. I'll bet anyone who wants to take the action that the ban is extended, if not made as permanent as such a ban can be.
