Half the country has enacted age-verification laws to prevent minors from viewing porn.
Tax all churches. None of them get a non-profit status. It's a business that uses 'religion' as a shield to shove it's 'morals' on the rest of society.
Taxing porn is just another way that religion is deciding what freedoms you get regardless of the Constitutional freedom of Speech.
It's forcing you to participate in the 'religious laws' of a specific religion.
Let’s tax viewing Fox News instead.
the bill would impose a 7 percent tax on total receipts “from sales, distributions, memberships, subscriptions, performances, and content amounting to material harmful to minors that is produced, sold, filmed, generated, or otherwise based” in Utah
Based on the text, it should
They’ve admitted what they really want is to outright ban porn, so it’s all just trying to push it as close to that as they can get to full censorship.
Those goobers use just as much porn as everybody else.
Yeah but they externalize it as an “addiction” and want to think of their actions as being someone else’s responsibility
Why won’t they just ban it?
Tax automation. Like AI.
“World shocked as children learn to torrent. ‘I thought we could actually stop people from accessing things on the internet’ one dumbshit was quoted as saying…”
It’s like none of these morons remember being a teen.
Blocks never stopped us from getting into things because teens have a lot more time to just fiddle with shit until they find a way in. Can’t get into dad’s computer? Go to a friends house and find a tutorial on privilege escalation or adding admin accounts or using portable apps to bypass parental locks. Hell today it’s way easier since you can just web search that shit. Back in the day you had to find niche IRC channels or little known websites.
All this is going to do is create a bunch of tech nerds.

I want a lying as a representative of the people tax. Kinda like a swear jar, but for public representatives and their official channels.

No I want that to be a capital offense.
If they’re able to prove in a court of law that you knowingly lied to constituents, off with your head.

It will be abused by the opposite party who will claim small lies count and start lopping off heads. Similar to the “fraud” charges the doj is trying to use against comey and james.
Fake charges are bullshit when they can take money and time from you. Imagine if they can take your life instead.
The death penalty isn’t the end all be all that people think since the wind can blow the other direction and power swings with it.
