The Louisiana State House of Representatives has taken the first step toward instituting a state Internet tax. House Bill 569, introduced by Rep. Mack “Bodi” White (R-Denham Springs), would exact a 15-cent per month tax on all consumers in the state that access the Internet. The money would then be funneled into a pot for Attorney General Buddy Caldwell to fight Internet crime, chiefly, pursuing child predators; this is a laudable goal. However, the proposed funding mechanism presents serious problems.
