As for broadband, Bush said users should not be taxed, and that the government should encourage competition among providers.
Bush has already signed into a law a two-year extension of the Internet Access Tax moratorium, which expired last fall. Now, he's calling on Congress to pass legislation that would extend the moratorium to broadband and make it permanent.
The House has passed a moratorium on user taxes levied against consumers who subscribe to broadband; the Senate is scheduled to address the issue this week.
(and in another part of the planet, the wiley Jeb Bush of Florida has figured-out a way to drop the anvil on the head of the unsuspecting Floridian consumer. See 'Poll Tax' below or go directly to article ...jim)
