LOOK AT YOUR PHONE BILL. THIS IS WHAT MINE LOOKS LIKE.   FEDERAL SUBSCRIBER LINE CHARGE $5.91 , FEDERAL UNIVERSAL SERVICE FEE $.60 , FEDERAL EXCISE TAX $.35 , PA GROSS RECEIPTS TAX SURCHARGE $.39 , PA  RELAY SURCHARGE $.08 , 911 $1.25 , GROSS RECEIPT TAX SURCHARGE LONG DISTANCE $.65 ,TAX RECOVERY FEE   $.72 , STATE SALES TAX $3.19. THIS ALL ADDS UP TO $13.14. MULTIPLY THAT BY 12 MONTHS  AND ITS $157.00 A YEAR IN TAXES JUST TO HAVE A PHONE . NOW MULTIPLY THAT BYJUST ONE MILLION PHONES $157,000,000. SEEMS KINDA STEEP JUST TO HAVE PHONE SERVICE IN OUR HOMES. I DON'T EVEN WANT TO GET INTO POWER , CELL PHONES , CABLE ,WATER ,NATURAL GAS , SEWAGE ,GARBAGE . THIS IS JUST AN EXAMPLE  OF HOW THE GOVERNMENT IMPOSES ITS WILL ON US . WHAT THE HELL ,AFTERALL ITS JUST PAPER.    JUST HAD TO LET THAT ONE OUT.    PEACE , LOVE , AND RECYCLE
