Hi, "How about running a more efficient operation, instead of just taxing everything!!!Just saw this article- on YahooGov. David Paterson's first state budget threatens to affect just about every New Yorker. Even those on-line.Much of the growth is revenue from 88 new or higher fees and will hit New Yorkers in many areas, from downloading music to sipping drinks to fishing.One of the proposed hikes is a so-called "iPod tax," which would tax the sale of downloaded music and other "digitally delivered entertainment services" by 4 percent.

Like if folks in NY don't have enough taxes already. It figures why they move down here to Miami when they retire...

Yeah, they're going to be taxing non diet sodas. They're calling it "Obesity Tax." Nice PR move...
