How bad is the Obama administration?

Even liberal rock stars think the tax hikes are going too far.....

Treat music just like advertising, if you want me to advertise your music by playing it on my station, no problem, pay me.

If the government mandates it or collects it ,then it sure looks like a tax to me.

Stop whining for Big Brother to rob other people of their lunch money;if your product is good then people will buy it; figure out how best to sell your product,don't expect the government to do it.

It’s not just money, running local independent stations out of business would also limit the venues for talk radio shows. The only alternative to the big corporate communications machine that is controlled by the left.

The govt doesnt collect it or administer it, that will be done by existing public performance entities like Sound Exchange. You obviously havent been ripped off by big corporate broadcasters for years, dont understand the problem or are misinformed. Ill cordially leave you out of the discussion.
