Italian banks refuse remittances from New York and transportation services will not deliver tickets paid for in New York.

House committee plan would triple personal income tax
A House committee proposal would raise the top marginal rate to 75 percent for high earners and nearly triple the tax for some middle and low income families. It keeps the $2,000 base exemption and adds a 10 percent defense tax and earned income credit on the normal tax. The plan also hikes excess profits rates for corporations and tightens collection methods to boost government revenue.
