My, oh my. My education about government must be sorely lacking, because the FCC has just created a new tax for VoIP to PSTN providers. Who knows why they did that, but it defies my understanding of the US government. I thought the Constitution gave only the legislative branch the power to levy taxes?
That opens up another question too: do the broadcasters that get fined for obscenity by the FCC get their day in court before a judge?
If this stuff becomes more common, I'll need a new category on this blog called "Government Going Down the Crapper" or should that be "Government Is a Crapper...Throw Your Money In"?
