Wow, man. As a people of the state, I would fight that. I mean, I know it is only 66¢ and that is no big deal in the grand scheme of things, but that is a tax that is boarding on anti-Net Neutrality (if they ever pass that damn thing).
I did some checking, it seems like only three states tax Netflix:
Florida - as telecommunications tax
Arizona - as a DVD sales tax (wha?
)
and
Texas - as it is considered a cable tax ... to quote them - as House of Cards is an original program
Boooo I say to all three. My bill not only is exactly $7.99 every month here, so it seems it is in the remaining 46 other states (at least those are the only three states I can find in my super-fast glance at least).
Seems to me, in all seriousness, that you (and all the other states) are getting double taxed. If you are getting taxed on your internet service, which I mean ... come on ... I know they are not gonna miss
THAT opportunity to tax you monthly for the internet (right?), you are getting taxed once again on top of it.
I know here, there is a higher tax for alcohol when you go out to eat, so if you have a drink with your meal, the tax on that portion is a little higher, but that is not what is happening with you guys. No, you guys are being taxed for your meal and then having an additional tax if you wish to add sour cream on your baked potato!!!!!
REVOLT I SAY!! REVOLT!!!!
