No, see, then all you'd have to do is one of the following:
1) Implement a "relocation tax" which you can assess on all companies as they are moving out of state after they get sick of the satellite tax,
Or...
2) Cry that these companies are clearly "racist" or "discriminatory" because they are moving out of the L.A. area into what will undoubtedly be some southern state which will, as always, give away the proverbial farm just to get the jobs.
Sound ridiculous? Well, this is liberal California we are talking about....
...permanently, by developing a "Smart Tag" that will allow us, by clicking on a person's name, to reach through our computer screens, and slap the living hell out of that moron after he or she comes up with lovely new "revenue-generating" ideas like this tax.
I would then gladly sign up for a Passport account....
Hear, hear! I've often wondered just what the job qualifications for a "critic" of any kind are. I mean, do any of them have degrees from the New England School of Criticism? No, most of them are just self-important blowhards whose job worthlessness and full-of-shit factor rank second only to the field of "sports reporter".
Why sports reporter, you ask? Take a Sunday morning sometime and tune into ESPN's "The Sports Reporters" show. Then come back and tell me whether you think any of those fat bastards has even seen a playing field in the last 20 years, nevermind actually participate in the activities that they think they know all there is to know about. It's the same deal with these so-called "critics"....
Dick Dale? That was so...1994. Just kidding, he's alright. Well, to each, his own, I guess, although I must admit that the older stuff of his (i.e. pre-Gnarly Geezer era) was much better.
As far as the site itself, yeah, it does suck, but that wasn't really the point I was trying to get across anyway.
It's the computer graphic equivalent of throwing a can of paint at the canvas, or painting a few geometric figures; the idea is small, and its translation into the final work is mechanical or random.

Not if the satellite hires Johnny Cochran as its lawyer. I can hear it now-"If the rocket booster don't fit, you must acquit"....
They've gotten pretty good at pitting cities and counties against one another in a contest to see who will give up the most...
Wait a minute...when did we start talking about NFL teams?

Isn't damaging capitalism the whole goal of all these tax-happy Californians anyway?

Didn't Jackson Pollock make a career out of this?
Who is Allan Holdsworth, you ask? Only the most incredible guitar player that you've probably never heard of.
