Radio Performance Tax
Congress has proposed a new tax. This tax would tax radio stations for every song they play on the air. If you are not sure how is it possible for radio stations to play music over the air for free to all its listeners let me explain. Radio stations, just like commercial television, sell time to businesses and companies to run commercials. The money they receive by selling airtime they then use to pay the people who work for the station.
