Clarification of Taxation of E-mail

[Brent J. Pliskow]

For some added clarification on one my statements...

In a conversation with my director, she mentioned that e-mail is actualy viable to be taxed since it is a form of communication (look at our phone bills).  I also remember reading some information about some government officials trying to get this passed.  I don't see this ever happening in my lifetime, but it is something interesting to think about.  How it would be enforced, I don't know.  Personally, I the government would be crazy to ever pass a law taxing e-mail.  If I'm not mistaken, isn't new technology, such as electronic mail, supposed to lower prices?  Just my two cents...
