This just in to our venerable news room here...the same guy who doesn't like bloggers (John McCain) is partially behind the legislation to stop Internet access from being taxed. Why, I have no idea. This legislation, if passed, would ensure that Internet access will remain cheaper and therefore more accessible to the American public. The Permanent Internet Tax Freedom Act would also allow a grandfather clause to provide for the 12 states that have already instituted an Internet access tax, which I call the "not stepping on the states toes" clause. How permanent is permanent here, who knows. It would just be nice to have this law passed, so keep an eye out for this law if you're into this sort of thing.
