I am not sure if anyone has raised this point before (someone must have!).

But...I find it ironic that the very people clamoring for taxation of internet services are the same people who complain that the poor and so-called disadvantaged in society can't gain access to services (like the internet). Their solution - make it more costly so even fewer poor people can afford access.

Most lawmakers want to tax the Internet so bad they can taste it!

Their solution - make it more costly . . . . . . .

This part of your statement is correct. even fewer poor people can afford access.

The reason they want to make it more costly is so the government can enact another entitlement program called Internet Aid.
