I certainly don't and never did, this probably differs between countries.
- wahern 8y agoAFAIU I pay fixed surcharges per account but I fail to see how, say, a per-SMS tax would violate the First Amendment while taxing each individual sale of a newspaper does not. In the U.S. we also have a constitutional right to freedom of travel but that doesn't make a gasoline tax unconstitutional. Generally speaking, the First Amendment prohibits the government from regulating the content of speech, not the speech itself.
