Hmm , sounds like they either want to try and learn still or are asking to be polite . Are they actually interested when learning the rules and during play , or does it feel like they ' re just going through the motions ? <| sep |> Smart bot . Talking about that shit will get you reprogrammed . <| sep |> Because limiting it to video streaming is bull shit . You ' re basically targeting a specific industry with a tax that has no negative societal externalities and does not utilize a public utility . You ' re taxing them because they innovated and disrupted the television market . It is internet data traffic . If you want to tax Netflix because they have a service that transmits video over internet protocol you should probably be taxing every single internet service that charges a monthly fee period . It ' s a fucking money grab because these cities are in dire straights for money because they ' re utterly incompetent at managing their finances . Chicago ' s bond issues are officially rated junk . That ' s PATHETIC for a municipality , especially when you look at all of the ridiculous city taxes Chicago has . Also , IANAL , but the Internet Tax Freedom Act prohibits discriminatory taxation of ecommerce so I expect Chicago loses their case against Netflix in court eventually . Chicagoans already have the highest taxes of any city in the country . Now they want to start levying taxes on individual internet industries ? Maybe they need to just figure out their own fucking mess first being the most corrupt city in the nation before they try to keep hitting up their citizens for more money than they ' ve already tapped them on the shoulder for . The local government is there to serve the people , not the other way around .
