| Billag Taxes, referendum/public voting to abolish it?
I'm a Swiss who grown up in Brazil, lived in Switzerland for five years, from 1992 to 1997, and now is back.
Back then I never heard of any television or radio tax, nobody informed me and I nobody never annoyed me about it.
When I was informed about the Billag taxes I was literally SHOCKED!!!
Anyway I accepted to pay the television tax, and didn't took the radio cause I don't have any and don't listen to.
Now I was reading in the newspaper that who has computers will have to pay the television tax cause of the high speed internet connections and even worst, that people who has computer already must pay the radio tax!!!
The television tax is already expensive, so paying a radio one too I find ridiculous!!!
Who set up this law? Can't we do a referendum or public voting to abolish it? Public television channels must survive by themselves with publicity and good televisions shows and sitcoms, not with the money of the people. Worst, actually they do both if you pay attention!!!
If some people have the same opinion that mine and want to change this absurd, I'm willing to participate in any action to change this, collecting signatures or something similar.
