Re:Is taxation best? (Score 1)

I don't think the government would "finally cash in". The money will probably go to the dying monopoly of that market, i.e., the USPS. Or maybe the RIAA could get their hands on it by whining that people send mp3s by email. Or maybe the MPAA could "benefit" because someone is sending movies over email. Or maybe.........

Yah.. sure.. it will benefit government... just like cigarette tax benefits the government already. Uh-huh, sure... ;-)
