The internet is way to complicated for a tax. Besides we are already taxed
How so you ask? Hosting providers pay taxes on power, water, personell. We pay taxes when we buy a PC, when we turn it on and it consumes power, and the space it takes up in our house.

So no, we should not be forced to pay tax to access the internet. I agree with the congressman, do they tax you when you go to the mall?? NO.

Here is another good question.. did the state lay the fiber cable? NO.

This argument should also be used to get rid of phone and cable taxes.

Ohhh the revenue for the state is lost.. omg what am i going to do.. ohh i dont know, maybe just maybe.. be fiscally responsible!
