I just got this in email. And thought it would be good to pass on. And I will continue passing this on every smoking thread for a long time!
Do we realize that the state of New York, or any state, cannot collect taxes on sales from other states, don’t we?
Article 1, section 9 of the Constitution for the United States of America, paragraph 5 states simply: “No Tax or Duty shall be laid on Articles exported from any State.”
Ain’t it amazing how our constitution is ignored? I think it should be required reading in our schools and a requirement that one is well-versed in our Bill of Rights before one can get a drivers’ license or a job.
However, the government frowns on a truly educated society, especially one that is educated on their rights.
