Let’s face it - giving up taxes in one area will result in higher taxes in another area and they will be borne by many who don’t make purchases - why not charge purchasers the going rate up front?

No, good for equality for all vendors.

When you buy an object at a local brick and mortar store and pay $6 sales tax but can get the same object via internet without the $6, where would almost anyone buy? I know I take advantage of the laws that save me money but it is not a level field for the local business.

Tax the product the same, don't screw the local business folks.
