What's been keeping the tax man's hand out of this cookie jar thus far is a long history of Supreme Court jurisprudence. Most recently in its 1992 Quill decision, the Court held that the nation's 7,600 tax jurisdictions could impose tax-collection burdens only on companies with a nexus in the taxing jurisdiction.

A One World taxing agency means the ultimate destruction of human freedom.

Not at all.

I will simply put minds to work thinking of, and developing ways to yank off the yoke!

Some of the Congressional testimony confirmed that if local governments were allowed to tax the internet, they could tax anything going through servers in their city / county / state. If you send an email to someone in your own city, it might go through several states and even multiple countries. Each one could legally pile a tax onto your email. If they tax the recipient, then you would be paying hundreds of taxing authorities to learn how to enlarge the size of your sex organs.
