I don't understand. What's wrong? They will soon begin taxing ISPs. So what? They are taxing your telephone, are they not?

It's not like they will be taxing products bought over the internet (unless the merchant and the buyer are in the same state--mail order laws apply).

Why not tax it, we're still paying a tax established to fund the american army for the telegraph back when we were expaning west...We'll be lucky if that's all they do

I say all shops should be duty free's online!
