(The Center Square) - Omnipresent digital advertising that appears in search results, on websites, in social media feeds, and as commercial interruptions to digital content is an industry poised to exceed a trillion dollars in the next five years, according to a study by GroupM, a media agency. Legislators in the House want to see the state bring home some of the revenue from that industry, proposing a 5% gross receipts tax on digital advertising. “We all agree that Pennsylvania needs more revenue come budget season to fund the public services we care about, like public schools, libraries, and communities,” said the bill’s prime sponsor, Rep. Elizabeth Fiedler, D-Philadelphia. While the bill comes at a moment when public sentiment over wealth inequality has grown to a fever pitch, legislators say that this is simply a fair tax on money being derived from Pennsylvanians. "This bill makes a commonsense change by applying the gross receipts tax to digital advertising, just like we already do for other industries,” said Rep. John Inglis, D-West Mifflin. He noted that since instituting a similar tax, Maryland has raised over $170 million. Currently, they’re the only state to have done so, and challenges from Internet giants including Meta, Google, and Apple have the state on the defensive even as others consider similar measures. The legislators say it isn’t just about asking Internet businesses to pay their fair share. “At the same time, we’re protecting local broadcasters and independent news outlets who serve the public good,” said Inglis. “It’s about fairness, accountability, and making sure our laws keep pace with the modern economy." House Democrats have also recently passed a bill that requires multi-state corporations to use combined reporting, which if enacted would ensure that they pay tax in Pennsylvania rather than lumping their income together in states like Delaware where tax isn’t charged. “The fact that mega-corporations can use our private data to sell us ads that make our experience on the internet more difficult and frustrating – without contributing anything to our commonwealth – is insulting,” said Fiedler. “It’s time for the billionaires to contribute and pay up.”

(The Center Square) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom signed a budget emergency proclamation, authorizing the state to access $17.6 billion in its budget stabilization account as he signed a record $321 billion budget. In the 2018-2019 fiscal year, the last year before Newsom's governorship, the state budget was $201 billion, meaning the state's budget has grown 60% over the last five years while the population has slightly declined. “Largely due to the federal government’s sweeping tariff policy, the 2025 May Revision forecast of the California economy projects a period of below-trend growth and rising unemployment ('growth recession') and a General Fund revenue forecast downgrade by $5.2 billion in fiscal years 2023-24 through 2025-26,” wrote the governor. While Newsom’s order blames the Trump administration for the state’s economic slowdown, federal data shows California lost a net 80,300 jobs in 2024, and had shed 173,000 private-sector jobs between January 2023 and December 2024, suggesting the state’s economic woes predated the Trump administration. 38.2% of Californians are so low-income they qualify for Medi-Cal, which has a monthly income threshold of $1,801, or $21,612, or about half of what one would make working at a fast-food restaurant full-time. In March, nearly half of all new jobs were from the state’s In Home Supportive Services program, a welfare program by which disabled or elderly Medi-Cal beneficiaries use taxpayer money to employ household members for up to 70 hours a week for household tasks, including a boost for overtime pay. Nearly three quarters of a million Californians are now classified as employed IHSS providers.

暴政之下沒有個人自由，在專制政權和由它打造的社會監管之下，個體只是提供暴政運行的材料，同樣也不存在一個獨立的公民社會。所以暴政不需要在社會與個人之間畫定邊界。這樣的社會形態被稱之為全權社會（totalism)即集權社會。全體（total)一詞表明這種社會是無空隙的.但是,自由社會卻必須有空間來容納個體人格的發展,同時又能使整個社會良性運行。這就是群體權界的意義所在。
