This is really no big deal, other than closing up a loophole that allowed a lot of people to “get out of” their sales taxes that they were supposed to pay.

Maybe your crap-hole state requires you to pay sales taxes for every out of state purchase you make. My state doesn't. All I have to do is add about 60 bucks to my income tax return when I file each year. It's a pittance compared to what I save in taxes by shopping online. I pay my state exactly what it demands I pay. I'm not slipping through some imagined loophole.

Neither did I..., as Oregon never did charge me sales tax on anything I bought... LOL...

But, as I said, even when I was *merely* a “visitor” — Texas and Oklahoma *never stopped* charging me sales tax on *everything*... hooo-boy!
