Well now online retailers will have to bone up on the sales tax rates for every county in every state in the Union. If you have ever filled out a sales tax form just for your own state you will know what a nightmare it is.
Between the sales tax and the shipping charges the internet will be killed. Great!!!!!!!!!
We don’t need to vote for 2014. We already have majority dems in the senate.
Ronald Reagan must be turning over in his grave.
watch for off-shore internet sales in Hong Kong, Bermuda....
Something else the politicians are shoving down the throats of Americans.
All politicians are the problem who offer no real solutions, only more problems.
The ecconomic world is flat.
There is no reason to source materials from a high tax state.
In fact now is the best time to screw the politicians and simply find sources outside the states.
For example why buy at best buy when you can buy direct and tax free from outside the usa.
Why not pass a bill that every consumer purchase must be done over the internet. No more brick and mortar stores and a cut back in driving. Think of the HUGE impact that would have on the greening of America and the reduction of our carbon footprint.
As a side benefit, with all things traveling by mail, the US Post Office might turn a profit!!
How many times can people be lied to, hoodwinked, betrayed, shot in the back, and not realized this is one big con-job?
How stupid can these people be not to understand they’ve been had?
They just don’t seem to understand the ruling class are all riding in the same limo.
Do they just refuse to believe it?
Are they part of the big con-job?
Or are they just plain stupid?
It’s amazing..
Where are all the sultans of sham who keep telling everyone they must vote for the better of two evils?
Taxes, taxes, taxes. :)
That’s what it’s all about. :D
Democrats try to increase federal government spending for their favored constituents.
Republicans try to increase local government spending (including spending from federal funding) for their favored constituents (see teachers, social workers, planners, building inspectors, other regulations for NGOs, emergency/rescue, etc.).
Republicans tell us to vote for their candidates to avoid legislative attacks against our freedoms, but Republicans don’t repeal bad laws that were already passed.
Remember that, and see where politics will go in the future (more into the socialist toilet, until there’s no more production or money of value for anyone to spend).
Both parties love internet sales tax bills.
Not a shock.
Obama will sign it Monday.
Just a general comment.
This bill will eventually have to go to the House. Since it appears to be a lost cause in the Senate, the time to start bothering your House Rep about this is NOW, TODAY. And everyday until the House takes it up. Let’s start building the firewall now instead of waiting till the last minute.
To be most effective, hand write, no computer printer needed, a short, legible letter expressing your misgivings about this, put it in a hand addressed letter size, not business size, envelope and send it to your Rep’s local office. Mail sent to DC gets delayed due to scanning for anthrax and other bad guys, etc. Mail to local offices is not scanned, yet.
We are where Europe is right now with both major parties looking for tax revenue to keep up the spending pipeline.
No talk from the supposedly conservative party of a quick balancing of the budget.
I hear the platitudes of Senator Pat “One Term” Toomey about trimming “fat” after he said last year he wants to balance the budget in ten years.
The crisis is here that demands real spending cuts, government agency (EPA, OSHA and more) total shutdowns and more to put the fiscal house in order.
The GOP plays to our resentments about items of wasteful spending without balancing the budget. Toomey played that game on the radio this morning and I’m not taking RINO bait anymore.
BALANCE THE BUDGET NOW.....
At least we have Boehner to protect us in the House.
He makes good decisions:
