What does Obama have to do with this tax, hater?
What a disgrace of a city
Asking couch potatoes to pay up 9% tax for sitting on their couch
Obama
Emanuel
2 guys completely destroyed a fine city
What does Obama have to do with this tax, hater?
Obama basically crowned Emanuel Mayor of that city. It was his buddy and former Chief of Staff.
Emanuel is one of the worst mayors in the history of human city interactions. City is broke now so Emanuel is making 12-16 year old children pay for his ups.
This is on both those scrubs. Yea more on incompetent corrupt emanuel but Obomba sponsored him.
get up and do something
emanuel is a classic neoliberal, but that's the norm, politically speaking, these days.
Sadly if chicagoans follow your advice they probably get shot
lol "crowned"
lol "sponsored"
lol hater
Not in the rich areas
President Obama expressed support for a possible run for Chicago mayor by his chief of staff, Rahm Emanuel, in an interview with ABC News that aired today.
Asked if Emanuel would have the president's "blessing" were he to enter the race to replace outgoing mayor Richard Daley, the president replied, "I think he would be an excellent mayor."

agree
Obama was kingmaker in 2010
Serves them right if they're stupid enough to buy Playstation Now tbh. 9% tax on Netflix is ing bull , I wonder how much Spectrum / Comcast / etc paid for that one.
Isn't Playstation Now a flat fee of 100?
It's been a few years since I had that but I didn't pay taxes or any bull like that.
Classy answer.
Doesn't have anything on straws getting you in more trouble than knowingly spreading around AIDS.
Spotify and Nintendo also charging the kids
Xbox will probably too
Wonder about Steam tbqh
Those aren't streaming services. The tax doesn't apply.Spotify and Nintendo also charging the kids
Xbox will probably too

The irony of Chicago (and the equally-bankrupt state of Illinois) giving hundreds of millions in tax breaks to the companies that produce the content that is streamed on Netflix and Amazon, then taxing the consumer at a 9% rate to consume these services, should not be lost on anyone. But video gamers who use PlayStation services got a rude awakening that they will be assessed the tax as well, thanks to a new “deal” between Sony and the city:
ing Obama and Emanuel
Huh? Playstation games are being taxed
Why not steam games?
The law was expanded to clowd services
What about porn
It's not the games themselves. It's the online services. So yeah I guess Nintendo Online, XBox Live, and Playstation Plus all get that pos 9% tax. Steam doesn't charge for online so the tax could be 9999999% for all they care.Huh? Playstation games are being taxed
Why not steam?
What about porn
Yeah thats what I meant. Any Multiplayer basically.
Ya may be right baseline
If they're really worried about lazy people getting fat, they'd put a 9% tax on fast food joints.
The whole "I'm too busy to cook/it costs more to eat home cooked" is so ponderous.
This screams bribe from the cable monopolies.
It's only an L if you actually pay for any of that . I dont.Ya may be right baseline
Now, if they start ing with Netflix, we go to war.
Xbox is already doing that essentially because you have to have Gold or whatever they call their online service to get online.
Indeed.
Reminds me when they went overboard with car safety seats. 6-8 year olds do not need 1-2 inch booster seats...but "Safety" first.
It would be so easy for the government to combat obesity but it doesn’t because of lobbying from companies like General Mills.
One easy way to do it is change how food stamps work. You shouldn’t be able to swipe the ol Lone Star Card at Jack in the Box. There should be certain foods that you can buy with food stamps and it should be set up where you’re able to buy enough.
