INTERNET TAX PROPOSED TO PROP UP SAGGING MUSIC INDUSTRY

This piece of interesting news from Michelle Malkin:

How would you like to be forced to pay a “music tax” bundled into your monthly fee for internet service?

That’s what the entertainment industry is up to–and Congress needs to hear from you. The plan is objectionable on both economic and social conservative grounds. Desperate record companies can’t compete in the 21st century, so they’re looking to government coercion for a rescue. The lead industry giant spearheading the tax proposal is Warner Music Group–notorious for peddling violent, racist, cop-hating, drug-glorifying gangsta rap and currently in the process of acquiring Death Row Records’ assets– which include the work of Tupac Shakur, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg.

EDITOR’S NOTEBOOK: There is no reason public money should support another person’s nonessential entertainment, just as no public tax money should be spent on PBS or the National Endowment for the Arts.  And I’ll be DAMNED if I spend a single redcent to prop up the likes of Fifty Scent or Snoop Doggie Doo or whatever. If their product sucks so badly, they need to either lower prices or get a more saleable product (like talented musicians) or just get out of the business.

The world DOES NOT need any more crap masquerading as talent, and they certainly should not take taxes for it. — Al Czervic.
