One more way to retard business.
One more way to retard business.
Yep. And one more retard to waylay business.
“One more way to retard business.” Good choice of words when talking about U.S. Rep. Bill Delahunt.
Just another MA idiot.
Have the retailers collect the sales tax for their location, other than cars, sales tax is based on the location of the seller not buyer.
Let the retailers locate their businesses based on the most competitive sales taxes. Let the states compete for this business with their tax rates.
You do not need to make this complicated.
I still fail to see why buying a used item from someone else on ebay.com calls for any kind of sales tax at all. Someone already paid the sales tax on it at a store. So at least there needs to be an exemption for people that aren't stores, just selling used items.
If there is an item on amazon.com that is a new book, then it makes sense that if there is a sales tax, just tell amazon.com to impose it on every sale of a new book and send it in the state that they are headquartered in. Why should it go to the buyer's state and make such sellers keep track of 50 states' tax laws? Much simpler to charge the rate for TX or CA or wherever the home state is for whoever is doing the selling of a new (not used) item.
