When I moved to Colorado and got a job I was instantly a resident for the purposes of being assessed taxes. After thirty days I was a resident for the purpose of a drivers license and plates for my car. I had to wait a year--perhaps two--to be a resident for the purpose of getting a fishing license. I live in Mexico, now, but I am still a resident of Colorado for the purpsoes of voting in national elections. So, tell me what my address would be for the purpose of buying books. My bank is in the U.S. and my billing address is a home in Tennessee. For Amazon, that makes me a resident of Tennessee for the purposes of paying sales tax for books bought.
I wonder when lawyers and politicians will realize that national boundaries are becoming more and more meaningless for real people.
