All right, here is another source of revenue. God forbid there should be any type of fiscal reform, instead of looking for more things to tax.

Is it called the "Chasing Even More People Out of the State Act"?

They want Detroit type results.
If Wall Street leaves, the whole state will collapse.

Netflix already charges tax here in NY because their service includes games, and games are taxable. I know many people advocated for the addition of games, but some of us just want Netflix for the movies. So I don't know why people like me have to pay the tax for games when I'm not interested in their games.

Ridiculous (especially if it includes free streaming services)!
