Have you read your latest cable bill lately? 10% of the bill is for taxes. The following taxes are as described on my cable bill:
State Sales Tax
E-911 Surcharge
Federal Universal Service Fund
Telecommunications Relay Surcharge
FCC Fee
FCC Regulatory Fee – Voice
Federal Regulatory Recovery Fee
State and Local Sales Tax
Really?! It would be interesting to find out exactly where our money goes because we can’t negotiate these charges and we pay on blind faith? It seems like state sales tax is being charged twice!! It would also seem that we are paying a sales tax on a service rather than a product.
In my spare time, I will research the “Federal Universal Service Fund” and let you know where and your money is being used by?
