I can't help wondering if the PA government will continue with this foolishness of trying to impose an Affiliate Nexus Tax Law. I've spent many long hours trying to iron out the kinks and bugs in how to write blogs that earn a little income, finally with some success. Now, I worry that come September the rug will get pulled out from under me and all my work will be for naught. I had dreams earning enough extra money to be able to pay off my kids' student loans and maybe have a little income to fall back on during my retirement years without having to get a part-time job cleaning toilets for some rich Malibu Beach actor (or maybe even someone poor, but with more money than me!!!)
Hopefully, some PA politicians will read this blog and maybe their votes will be swayed to overturn this ridiculous bill. Maybe there aren't as many affiliates in PA as there were in California, but I'm sure that there are some that are relying in part or all in the income they receive as affiliate marketers. Without that income, what do they do? It isn't exactly like there is a booming job market in America at the moment. Every month I watch CNN and see the reports of big a per cent of the population is on unemployment, and I hear stories about people who have been looking for jobs for a whole year or more. I personally know people who have had to move out of the housing and move back in with their parents (How does it feel to have to go to your parents and tell them you can't pay your rent or mortgage?). What happens with their kids when they get sick and they have no jobs, and therefore no benefits such as healthcare coverage?
Affiliate marketing could be a way out for some of those people that would keep them off food stamps and welfare roles, and give them a positive image of themselves.
So, let your lawmakers know how bad this proposed law is going to be for a lot of people, and how it is even going to take away potential for people who can't find a regular job. If our lawmakers don't bend to our well, remember, we have the right to vote and we can vote them GONE!!!!!
