TAXES and TELEPHONES
Take a good look at your next telephone bill, and you will
see that Federal taxes make up an important percentage of
your bill! Federal tax on local service is 15%. On long distance
service where the charge is 25c or over, the tax is 25%. Other
' forms of telephone service are taxed from 8 to 25%.
|
This tax is imposed directly upon you as a telephone
user. Your telephone company, at its own expense, acts
i as tax collector.
Telephone service today is usually regarded as a necessity.
Yet the 25% tax on long distance and other services is higher
than the 20% for luxury items, such as jewelry and furs.
Telephone users everywhere have expressed their opinions
on this high excise tax to their Senators and Representatives
in Congress. Their views will help to guide future Congression
al action on this unusual peacetime tax on a necessity. Vi e
are sure that your Congressmen would appreciate your views
as a taxpayer and citizen on telephone taxes.
These excise taxes levied direil'y upon you as a user are
