" Lawmakers have proposed an illegal new tax on digital products as their solution to California's $8 billion budget deficit. This new iTax would charge sales and use taxes on all digital products, like music and movie downloads on iTunes.
But, the Democrats know that they can never pass a tax increase with 2/3 vote in the Legislature. That's why they have proposed a sneaky, convoluted bill that avoids the 2/3 vote. AB 1956 would require California's tax board, my agency the Board of Equalization, to redefine California's tax code to include more products as taxable."
Now this is a terrible idea. Just because they are stupidly spending doesn't mean we should have to spend money on whole new taxes. It looks like they are gonna try to do this like they fooled people into voting for the phone tax.
