Neither do I, however if I can purchase a product on the internet from your state and you from my state why should either of us pay sales tax (unless there is a storefront in my state or your state which would mean there is an agreement in place between the business and the state to pay sales taxes).
As far as taking my taxdollars for contractual work outside my state. The state is taking revenue from the people of the state and handing it over to another state (via workers) while at the same time they are complaining they are losing revenue.
I guess we will have to agree to disagree.
Well, the way it will work is if I buy “online” and ship it to my address in my state, I’ll only pay *my state’s sales tax”.
And then, likewise, if you buy online and buy it from your address in your state, you’ll only pay *your own state’s sale tax” for the residence that you have in that state.
They’ll do it that way, or else, what you’ll see is everyone buying homes, cars, refrigerators and *everything* online and no one paying any sales taxes anywhere. The states see that thing “down the road” and they’re basically not going to have that happen to their “funding stream” from “sales taxes”.
I would think that should be plainly obvious to anyone...
[... in addition to the fact that this “moratorium” on state sales taxes from the Feds has *always* been “billed as a moratorium” and nothing else...]
