Internet Business Owners to Pay Taxes?

May 5, 2009

If you own a business that has no physical presence in a U.S. state, you are not required to ask for, nor submit, sales tax. A 1992 U.S. Supreme Court ruling does not obligate mail-order firms (and internet companies, by extension) to use tax. That’s the law today. In the name of economic recession, U.S. [...]

Food Safety Bill Ricochets Around Web

March 24, 2009

If U.S. Representative Rosa DeLauro (D-CT) has her way, the nation’s farms and vineyards–under the umbrella of small business operations–would be grouped with slaughterhouses and restaurants and face new regulations under the proposed Food Safety Modernization Act of 2009. The underlying purpose of H.R. 875 is noble; the Food and Drug Administration is tasked with [...]

U.S. Bans Social Networking

August 21, 2008

Blame the U.S. government for the title of this post. Uncle Sam is throwing its weight behind three primary reasons to ban access to social networks. Ask yourself if you want the United States of America — the land of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness — to be compared to the United Arab [...]

But for one reason or another, these addresses are not always used. Did you know that… former White House officials serving under President George W. Bush sent emails from accounts provided by [...]

Keep It Simple When Drafting Laws

August 8, 2008

Have you ever seen the written language to amend a law? It’s full of verbiage! I just read a municipal law that orders the city council to adopt An Ordinance Entitled An Ordinance to Amend An Ordinance Entitled Streets, Sidewalks, and Other Public Places, at which point the meat of the amendment is stated and [...]

Do Ask, Do Tell, and Repeal the Law

July 26, 2008

Seventy-five percent of Americans can’t be wrong. I’m just learning about this now, fact-checking data from a Wikipedia entry on the Don’t Ask Don’t Tell military policy, but a Washington Post-ABC News poll released last weekend indicates overwhelming bipartisan support for gays to openly serve in the U.S. armed forces. I’m hardly surprised. America’s come [...]
