    Newsom said it isn’t fair that someone has to pay sales tax for an in-person purchase but not for a download

    Wait a minute… couldn’t employment be framed as a taxable in-person purchase of a persons time ans skill? Couldn’t this law be leveraged against AI providers?

    Didn’t he just veto a billionaire tax? Man I hate Newsom.

    I am so tired of this empty vessel taking up headline space that could be focused on actual people of substance.
