Democrats taxing the internet?
I’m not much into mass email campaigns, but this one made sense to me and bears repeating. So, rather than sending a bunch of people not terribly interested in it, I’ll just stick it up here.
Here they go again — tax-happy Democrats are running out of ways to tax you — so they are turning to the Internet.
Last week, Senate Democrats effectively killed a bill that would permanently hold off taxes on your Internet access — a ban that expires on November 1.
Democrats said “further negotiations are warranted.” Further negotiations on what? Apparently your taxes just aren’t high enough.Make no mistake — Democrats want to construct brand new taxes on Internet access for Americans — a place that currently has no taxes.
Take action today to stop the Democrats’ plans:
1. Sign up at http://www.CostOfDemocrats.com to receive updates on the outrageous actions by Senate Democrats and what those actions will cost you.
2. Forward this email to five friends to help expose the Senate Democrats for what they really are — a liberal, tax-and-spend majority that will do everything in its power to force their extreme views on the American people.
3. Join Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell in the fight to keep the internet tax free by signing his petition here.
Imagine, every time you need to find directions on the Internet, order a DVD, shop for your groceries, or pay a bill online, you could be charged if the Democrats have their way.
This is Democrats latest attempt to massively increase taxes. The World Wide Web has greatly enhanced our country’s ability to connect and get the word out, and Democrats want you to pay for that freedom.
Regardless of the rhetoric, the facts are true. Want some historical president? Look at your, or someone else’s phone bill sometime. The internet is the last bastion of free speech, it needs to be left alone.
Is this what the people who voted the Republicans out wanted? Do they even have a clue why this is suddenly happening? I doubt it. Go ahead someone, prove me wrong. If you can’t, take it to Daily Kos.
