It looks like Senator Hillary Clinton is gearing up for her war on video games.
Sources say that Clinton has been asking for volunteers for a new anti-violence in video games initiative. Specifically, Clinton is looking for someone who feels passionate about extreme violence in video games.
One of Clinton’s ideas is to try and add a special tax to video games, sort of like what they do for cigarettes. The profits from the tax would then go to a child advocacy and obesity programs.
The “concerned parent” would need to attend a press conference and make a short statement about their opinion and should be able to deal with annoying reporters asking questions like: Did Clinton send out a memo asking for someone like you to talk for her at a press conference?
Just a word of warning gamers, this isn’t going away. Clinton has her heart set on making violence in video games a key component of her platform. Taxes on video games are going to be discussed.
