Porn Tax Bill Passed 5-4!!!
Current mood: VERY SATISFIED!!
Please read below a letter from Assemblyman Charles Calderon regarding Daphne and I testifying at California State Capitol on May 12, 2008, in support of AB2914 Adult Entertainment Tax Bill which will tax pornography and the adult entertainment industry at the rate of 25% of gross receipts received in this state on or after October 1, 2008. I’ve been informed the bill did pass out of the Assembly Revenue and Taxation Committee and is now on its way to becoming a law! ….. Full Story

What on earth are you and Shelley talking about? The bill was DEFEATED 5-4 in committee.
From Today’s Sacramento Bee:
Adult-entertainment tax idea dies in Assembly
Sex is safe – from higher taxes.
X-rated entertainment won’t be tapped to help solve California’s massive budget woes.
Legislation died in an Assembly committee this week that would have slapped higher taxes on businesses that sell or produce sexually explicit shows, films, books, magazines or Internet programming.

Why don’t you do some RESEARCH before you go shooting off your mouth?

How embarrassing it must be to be constantly showing the entire world what a major fucking idiot you are.
I can’t imagine what it must feel like to be WRONG every time you open your mouth.
You are truly one of the most ignorant and lazy people I have ever come across.
Instead of plagiarizing some other moron, try doing your own research for once. You MIGHT actually learn something.

Was this also on PBS? Or did you actually do some research on this. If so, you’d better look for another line of work, because you suck at research (which is the start for every reporter).
