BTW 'Fees' are Sales Taxable in California. We have Tax on Taxes. Vehicle fuels have Federal excise Tax, State excise tax and we pay local Sales Tax on the total of those + the fuel. "Excise Tax is really a FEE because it is flat rate per gallon, not a % like sales tax" is their justification.

And the Kindle transmission fee is a basically a tax on the customer.
