Liberty on Tap since 1984
Philadelphia Feedom: City of Brotherly Love Imposes Licensing Fees for Bloggers
that the cradle of U.S. liberty imposes $300 licensing fees on the city's
bloggers.
With apologies to Sir Elton and lyricist Bernie Taupin:
I used to be a blogging drone, you know
Every day I’d writeAbout anything that mattered to me
I used to do this gig free for everyone
But the times have changed
The less I pay the less my work gets done
Cause I just got slammed with Philadelphia feedom
And now I pay three hundred dollars what a drag
Philadelphia feedom costs me more than I can standTook away the freedoms I used to have
Oh Philadelphia feedom taxes me, I hate you
Shine a light on the those who’ll tax you blind
Buy the license or pay a fine
Buy the license or pay a fine
Philadelphia feedom I despise you, yes I do
If it seems you can’t choose to be left alone
Some official taxes us, it’s a pity
Or they charge you for a license to work in your home
I liked living easy from government ties
Until the vulture of feedom zapped me
Right between the eyes
Oh Philadelphia feedom taxes me, I hate you
Shine a light on the those who’ll tax you blind
Buy the license or pay a fine
Buy the license or pay a fine
Philadelphia feedom I despise you, yes I do

What if I'm not in Phily, but I blog about Phily?

I'm a blogger in Philadelphia, and, well: They'll get my $300 when they pry it from my cold, dead hands.
