Congress Extends Internet Tax Moratorium

Congress has extended the Internet tax moratorium for another two years. Given the fact that states and localities are howling for new revenues as budget gaps grow, any extension is cause for celebration.

Reason Magazine online reports "But the particulars are cause for concern. Only the first $25 of Internet access fees is to be levy-free. This is a big green light for states and localities to devise new taxes on higher-priced broadband access. This is exactly what struggling-to-expand broadband does not need." And this cap may spark new attempts to garner cash from other "access" based conditions.

He later had her released and sent back to Promises, the Malibu-based clinic that has been treating her.

Last month, Poundstone was sentenced to five years' probation after she pleaded no contest to felony child endangerment and a misdemeanor count of inflicting injury on a child stemming from incidents involving kids in her care.
