Missed out on $300 MILLION MORE
Ad Spending on the Internet for the second quarter was slightly less than $3 billion.
For the first six months, revenue reached about $5.8 billion, which is a 26% increase over the first half of 2004.
A 5% Sales tax on Advertising (STONA) would have moved
$150 MILLION to the States, and a total of $300 Million for the first 6 months,
and ALL it would have cost is 5% Less Pop-ups, and other ad nuisances.
