It is a nightmare for small businesses. It would be better to have a national sales tax that is centrally collected and then disbursed to the states. Trying to collect for not only state but local option sales tax is a great burden when your sales are nationwide.

Why not make stores collect sales tax from out of state buyers? We can be sure they are not paying the use tax when they bring the items they buy back home. So they must pay the onsite tax as well as the tax for their state.

If this is implemented then states that do so must eliminate their use tax.

“stores collect”

Great point! One of the many reasons this should’ve been handled by congress, not the court. They’ve legislated from the bench here.
