RE :”A state online sales tax fix may leapfrog its way right to the Senate floor. Majority Leader Harry Reid began the process late Tuesday that would allow the bill, known as the Marketplace Fairness Act, to come before the full chamber without first going through the Senate Finance Committee — whose leaders largely dislike the proposal......
But the Senate could vote as early as next week on an online sales tax bill, a Senate Democratic aide told “

Now here's one that should be cake to kill. Up till now Dems been cherry picking their issues for ones that poll well, but this one seems like it would be generally unpopular and even Collins should find it easy to oppose.

Living in high tax single party Dem state (Maryland=O Martin Malley) that recently raised sales taxes with many other taxes I love shopping on Amazon so they get nothing in sales taxes.
CA just raised sales taxes too, so much for progressive taxes only on ‘the rich’

Pretty stupid idea for Reid to try to basically raise taxes (rel to high tax states) with the negative consequences for his members that his congress doesn't even get to spend. Who is lobbying him for this?

A friend wants me to move (back) to Maryland. Told her I can’t as it would cost me at least 10% of my yearly income just to pay Maryland taxes.

Leave it up to the Dems to cook up some phoney stats about how internet sales are done overwhelmingly by the “rich”. Just keep going to the well until there is nothing left but toxic sludge.
