That’s part of the problem. People say ‘well, It’s close to the truth. And I don’t like the truth, I prefer truth adjacent, sooooo....,

Except more people pay phone surcharges than people pay income taxes.

Estimated 45.3% of households don't pay federal income taxes.

Estimated 91% of adults own a cell phone.


So more people pay phone "surcharges" than federal income taxes. Not even counting the fact that a large number of minors own cellphones which have "surcharges" too. Far more people pay a phone surcharge than any tax around... so I question the real distinction between the two.
