[Hidden-tech] Mass IT Tax discussion

[Michael Ippolito]

If there's one thing clear about all of our discussions, is that it's
all very unclear. What I have chosen to do is to set up every single
service as granular as I can within my accounting package, and make
them all taxable.  I have informed my clients when clarity does come
from the DOR I will either a)  refund the tax from the service that
ends up being nontaxable,  or b) forward the tax to the DOR. Now that
being said, this system may not work for everyone, it just so happens
that I'm on an annual reporting period with the DOR. I can't speak for
those with quarterly reporting, that's a question for your CPA.

Unfortunately the law is the law and it's in effect now, so as
businesspeople this is the best that we can do with the information we
have in hand.

About that,
let's hold off on more philosophizing about the meaning, intent or
reasons for the tax.
since those are no mundane to the matter at hand.

What would be appropriate and useful, are information on:

1) Actions to help remove or define the tax,
    and by that I mean petitions, meetings, letters to the legislature
(and responses)

2) Specific Tax information (from State or 'real' tax lawers)
    What we need immediately is clarifications (official not guesses)

I will be collecting the real specific information and posting to HT
(and Incommn) web sites.
