It's already been settled before SCOTUS.
the 1935 Miller decision established the precedent that taxes do not constitute an infringement.
That would be the same court that FDR stacked with his lackies wouldn't it?

So lets tax freedom of speech, or better yet a 20% excise tax on movies like they did back in the 50's  8)
He who dares wins.  SAS

If you live in a state with a sales tax you're already paying a tax on freedom of the press every time you buy paper, writing implements or computer stuff.
It falls under Congress's power to tax .
