not that I like paying taxes, we really need to rethink the whole internet vs. state sales tax thing and just bite that bullet. States are going broke because they simply are not getting the sales tax revenue. Even non-citizens contribute via sales tax.
I just think it is a needed fix for the US economy. Sure we might buy a few less items but most of us will still buy online for the convenience alone. Even ebooks...and I like my Amazon Prime membership more than I ever liked my Costco memebership. But the whole tax thing just has to happen.
Anyway, sorry to wander off in "that" direction here but I just felt it's relevent to the whole idea of sales tax to people who live in states with a sales tax, especially those that have a sales tax and no income tax.
