Internet Taxation May Be Imminent
redfenix writes " Here, there, and everywhere, the words "Internet Tax" are being uttered with intentions of bolstering state budgets. It may be inevitable that products purchased on the net will be taxed someday. The real question is: can the fragile internet economy really help local tax economies now?"
Taxed to Death...

Giving money to the government is like giving booze to an alcoholic - it might SEEM like you are being kind, but you are not.

Well, if you're on wellfare or in a cushy government job, that quote is right.
I, however, WORK for my money. I work HARD for my money. I gave up having a family for my money. I dedicated myself to a grueling education and years of commitment to my career and improving myself so that I could have a good job and income. And now I am a young man without a family working 70+ hours a week busting my ass to keep HALF of my income so that other lazy people can STEAL the OTHER HALF of my income.
Yeah, uh huh. You know how much sales tax is used to "eradicate Iraqis?" Let me give you a guess. It's less than a penny, which is exactly how much we will award you for your complete understanding of the difference between "federal" taxes and "state" taxes. But your anti-Bush joke is duly noted and promptly discarded.
Tip: For anything to be humorous, it must be at least vaguely based on truth. Otherwise you're just flapping your gums again.
Vote Libretarian!!!!!!!!
Regardless of what your ideals tell you, every time you vote Libertarian you are voting Republican. And I hope for the love of god that the last two years have illustrated the consequences of doing so.
The government has a defect: it's potentially democratic. Corporations have no defect: they're pure tyrannies. -Chomsky

In the abstract, /. stories can be summarized as:
...C YOU! (in the text)
A C
where,
A is a noun referring to that which is acting;
B is a verb referring to the action;
and C is a noun referring to that which was acted upon.
Given this story structure, the general form of the IN
SOVIET RUSSIA... joke is:
IN SOVIET RUSSIA... (in the subject)
Simple, huh? Get it right from now on!

Sounds better as "One Nation, Indivisible" too. That'd have looked a hell of a lot better on car bumper stickers than that crappy "United We Stand" BS, if the effing pseudo-Christians hadn't stolen the pledge.
Just saying.
