From: "Thierer, Adam" <adam.thierer () heritage org> Subject: new Heritage telecom / Internet studies Date: Mon, 7 Feb 2000 11:58:56 -0500 Just thought you'd want to know that The Heritage Foundation has just released two new papers on issues you might find of interest: (1) INTERNET TAXATION: A copy of our new Backgrounder entitled, "The NGA's Misguided Plan to Tax the Internet and Create a New National Sales Tax," can be downloaded from the following link: http://www.heritage.org/library/backgrounder/bg1343.html [Note: Heritage also recently participated in a STATE TAX NOTES in-print debate with the National Governors' Association regarding the merits of an origin-based system of sales tax collection versus the NGA's proposed system. If you are interested in a copy of this 12-page debate, feel free to contact me via e-mail or phone (202-608-6214) and I will send you one.] (2) DIGITAL DIVIDE: Heritage has also recently released a short Executive Memorandum entitled, "Digital Divide or Digital Deluge of Opportunity," which addresses some of the myths surrounding the current debate over the so-called "digital divide." A copy of the paper can be found at: http://www.heritage.org/library/execmemo/em646.html Please feel free to forward this notice to anyone else you think might find it of interest. And if you would like to receive hard copies of any of these documents, just contact me. Thank you. Adam D.
