Interesting thought -

Shouldn't the amount of missing revenue been calculated first before taking up limited time to pass a bill that may not be necessary? Or, is this an attempt to add checks and balances until the STRs are driven out? (if we can't limit them we can try regulating them out of business)

Of course, if taxes are not being paid then that needs to be fixed but it isn't at all clear that that was the real intent of this legislation.

Confirmation bias is real; I can find any number of articles that say so.
