After holding firm against virtually any kind of tax increase, some congressional 
Republicans have found one that doesn't make them cringe.A contentious bill

taxes for purchases made over the Internet. Though it would likely face 
more resistance in the House, where the anti-tax creed is more pronounced,

Thursday, up from 1.69 percent last week but still at a historically 
low level.To calculate average mortgage rates, Freddie Mac surveys lenders 
across the country on Monday through Wednesday each week. The average doesn't 
include extra fees, known as points, which most borrowers must pay to 
get the lowest rates. One point equals 1 percent of the loan 
amount.The average fee for 30-year mortgages rose to 0.8 point from 0.7 
point last week. The fee for 15-year loans was unchanged at 0.7 
point.The average rate on a one-year adjustable-rate mortgage fell to 2.58 
percent from 2.63 percent last week. The fee for one-year adjustable-rate 
loans increased to 0.5 point from 0.4.The average rate on a five-year
