The Internet
Freedom of speech and freedom from taxation are key to the success of
commerce via
the Internet. The government has turned the internet into
a way to
spy on you. I believe that this is a violation of The Bill of Rights.
We need to make sure that there is never a
government system which
monitors peoples' words or actions on the Internet.
The federal government's "tax ban" on internet commerce is a political
strategy to actually lay the foundation for a federal sales tax on internet
commerce. The federal government does not currently have the authority
to actually implement such a tax, and therefore does not have the authority
to ban such a tax. However, by working backwards, when the government
lifts
the tax ban in
a few years, everyone will think that it had the authority
to implement
a federal sales tax on the Internet in the first place.
