Well, it’s probably just as bad as living here in San Francisco – surrounded by liberal ideology and insanity and all … but whatever.  Just today, Governor David Paterson proposed a $121 billion budget that affects New Yorkers with their iPods - and nickels-and-dimes them to death.

Trying to close a $15.4 billion budget gap, Paterson called for 88 new fees and a host of other taxes, including an “iPod tax” that taxes the sale of downloaded music and other “digitally delivered entertainment services.” Other taxable items include movie tickets, taxi rides, soda, beer, wine, cigars, massages, cable and satellite TV services and also removes the tax exemption for clothing costing less than $110.

Perhaps he should consider a tax for those who commit adultery too.  I’m just sayin’.
