    First, I'm not sure who is disagreeing with you on that, and second, it seems that was some of the basis for the exemption of sales taxes online in the first place.

    The 1998 Internet Tax Freedom Act ... in an effort to promote and preserve the commercial... potential of the Internet.

    The time for promotion and preservation has ended unless Amazon still needs protection.

    Why issue dumbass suggestions then?
    And why not cite your reasons for believing that the Feds will stay completely out of the money grabbing when they never have before?
    Even more so true of the current spending maniacs we have..--Tyr
    You were wrong on page 1, you're wrong on page 3. The legislation that is ACTUALLY the subject of the thread is about the taxing power of the States. You would like the Feds to stay out of their business right?

    I have no faith that the Feds will stay out of the money grabbing game but that's what eternal vigilance is about. IMO conservatives should remain consistent about their views and not just oppose things because of what BO may do at the behest of his money-grubbing, muzzy overlords.

    And that was my premise when I spoke directly about the Feds.

    Good to see that you finally got it and manned up to agree with me.

    If that makes you feel better.
