Plain Talk About
TELEPHONE TAXES
Federal excise taxes are increasing your telephone
bill —in some cases as much as 25%. There is a flat 15%
Federal tax on local service. On long distance service
•where the charge is 25c or over, the tax is 25%. Other
forms of telephone service are taxed from 3 to 25%. This
tax is imposed directly upon you as a telephone user.
Your telephone company, as its own expense, acts as a
tax collector.
These excise taxes, levied directly upon you as a user,
are in addition to the corporation income taxes which
the company pays to the government. These taxes must
be included in the company’s cost of business and must,
therefore, act to increase your telephone bill as a sort of
hidden sales tax.
Telephone service is generally regarded as a necessity.
Yet the 25% tax on long distance and other service is
higher than the 20% luxury tax for jewelry and furs.
We are sure your Senators and Representatives in
Congress would welcome your views as a taxpayer and
citizen in helping them to guide future action on this
unusual peacetime tax on a necessity.
