Despite the tone of this article, I find the facts stunning - Microsoft is proposing a tax only it and Amazon would be forced to pay that would provide $1 BILLION over 4 years in financial aid and educational assistance. Let that sink in a little bit . . .
This seems to me another example of an innovative form of public-private cooperation to meet public policy goals we all need to get behind. Any comments or thoughts?
Microsoft has volunteered to be taxed more for the sake of giving students interested in higher education an opportunity and support channel for the next few years.
