I can’t dispute what you say regarding the Constitutional issues (I plead ignorance). My remarks are entirely based on time-tested principles of tax policy.

Tax policy cannot amend the constitution.

Alas, internet sales are a portable business. MN apparently doesn't want anyone inside MN to make any money off the activity.

This is the use of taxes to destroy your own people ~ kind of like Assad using sarin, but in this instance they'll just move next door to Wisconsin.

BTW, in Virginia the gub’mnt pays the merchants for collecting the sales tax. Note, it is not mandatory that you sell, so it’s a voluntary act!
