Does B&H match the education discount for students?

Do you drive on roads? Did you, your spouse, or your children or parents attend school? Do you use our monetary system (i.e. the US dollar)? Are you protected by our military, police, fire and healthcare workers? Do you benefit from national trade deals with other countries directly or indirectly by being employed in any way in our economy? Do you drink tap water or use toilets? Etc.?

If you answered yes to any of those things, and DON'T pay taxes, then congratulations -- you're the thief!
You mean all those broken services we are forced into paying for? Yeah, the citizens are the thieves.

You can be against taxes and still pay them.

I could see why some wouldn't want to pay.

The US dollar really made me laugh out loud, thanks! Btw the federal reserve is not part of any branch of government.

Gotta love VA. I live in Richmond and the city gets you every which way it can. Its a **** show.
 
Well damn, glad I waited on picking up that Macbook for the wife. Definitely gonna put in an order on Friday.

Edit: Whoa, with Best Buy's student coupon I'm looking at $1,266.05 for the entry-level Macbook, lower than the computer itself pre-tax. Dang.

I was thinking about getting the 10.5" ipad pro LTE 64gb model, but after the EDU discount it's still $9 over Florida's cap. That $9 means the entire price is taxed. Fooey.
 
Tax in my area dropped from 9.75% to 7.75%, which isn't much but every little bit counts.

Bought a 12" Macbook from Best Buy last night:

Of course my order status page now says...

Our tax calculation system is temporarily down. Your current order total does not reflect sales tax or other applicable taxes. However, you will be charged tax for this order.

So who knows if I'll get the proper tax rate or not when its all said and done.
