Yes, I think they did. They couched their vote because of ‘unfair competition’ with brick and mortar stores here by Amazon, etc. but the truth is they wanted the frigging tax money for the state. Taxes....money, power, control.

I buy a BUNCH on Amazon...about half of the stuff I buy comes from other ‘brick and mortar’ small stores all over the country. It evens out, but they just want the money.

I live in libs Maryland where Dems have complete control no competition, Martin O malley.

He raised state sales tax, alcohol and cigarette taxes,, income taxes, gas tax, even a rain tax because he can. (gay marriage and gun control too)

So those GA GOP Senators and McCain and Grahamnesty voting for that Reid bill to force Amazon and others to charge me sales taxes to give to O malley totally enraged me.
